Forrest Gump's mother told him: "Life is like a box of chocolates... ." My own mother told me: "Honey child, there's a thin line between love and hate." What words of wisdom did your mother or loved one impress upon you? Anyone?

"be a lady in public, a chef in the kitchen and a harlot in the bedroom."

Your dad sounded like he was a smart man.

Sorry!
Dont worry, we wont tell.

Well, it's ok - I admit it, but I will say I'm the good kind of Mama's Boy, and not a more cliched 'leser male' type! :-)

[peacebaby]

"ok, gotta ask: how'd farming make it into your keywords ??:

You get the prize for being observant!

Because my mother's father told her about her betrothed (my dad): "Honey, he'll never amount to anything 'cause he knows nothing about cows or farming."

“When a man brings his wife flowers for no reason—there’s a reason.”

It's the good girls who keep diaries; the bad girls never have the time.

A diplomat is a man who always remembers a woman's birthday but never remembers her age.

Honey, Im sorry, but I dont know if there is a "good kind" of mama's boy..But If there is Im sure youre it.

[HitmanLV]

Well, self awareness is a difficult thing... ;-)

Another mammaism re: self-awareness: "Honey, always, ALWAYS, make sure the toilet paper isn't stuck in your pantyhose."

[motormouth]

[tomkat]

Ok, that gives it context.
Now about that capabara ...

[MamaTexan]

What words of wisdom did your mother or loved one impress upon you?

If wishes were fishes, we'd walk on the sea

Plan for the worst, hope for the best, and if you're lucky, you'll come out somewhere in between

and (the one stupid teenage mistake I made of raising my hand to her):

Bring it on Darlin'....... but you best bring it ALL!

:)

[peacebaby]
