My mom has been right about pretty much everything (as much as I HATE to admit it...lol)

The only example I can really think of is when my mom would always tell me "don't assume people are talking about you." I always had this problem when people would say something amongst themselves, or outloud to others, and I would automatically assume that they were talking about me. Pretty much 9 times out of 10, they really weren't. lol

This one is from my most wonderful mother-in-law: "Your kids won't remember how clean the house was."

As some of you know, my mom is dealing with cancer. One of the unfortunate side effects is that she can't eat some of her favorite foods (like chocolate) and has to really watch when and how much she eats. She definitely got it right when she recently told me "I don't care anymore, as long as it tastes good and doesn't make me sick, I'm going to eat what I want! Calories be damned!"

However, my mom is still wrong for not letting her 7th grade daughter shave when she asked to start doing so.

Shirelles lyrics - Mama Said


Artist: Shirelles
Song: Mama Said


Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
I went walking the other day,
Everything was going fine,
I met a little boy named Billy Joe
And then I almost lost my mind
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
My eyes are wide open
But all that I can see is,
chapel bells are callin for everyone but-a me
but I don't worry cause
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
And then she said someone will look at me
like I'm looking at you one day,
then I might find
I don't want it any old way,
so I don't worry cause
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said there'll be days like this,
There'll be days like this my Mama said
Mama said, mama said
Hey! Don't you worry,
Mama said mama said
Hey! Don't you worry now.
Mama said mama said,
Hey! Hey!
