My mom was a hard working but quiet woman,
her main mode of teaching us was through one liners, these are some of them, you'll recall the endings as you see them...
1.. a stitch in time
2.. birds of a feather
3.. a rolling stone
4..waste not
5..beauty is as


Maybe you each have more to share ?

"the squeaky wheel always gets the grease"
"what's good for the goose, is good for the gander"

"And if you're friends jump off the O'Neal bridge, would you do that too?"

"What were you thinking?"

"Don't talk with your mouth full, did you hear me?"

"Cuz I'm the Mother, that's why"

"Ask you Daddy"

"Always make good choices, life won't be perfect but it will be a lot better if you do."

"If it feels like it's wrong, stop and think, then don't do it."

Just stuff I'm always telling my kids.
