It's been awhile - but I remember one girl that would eat them as well. Ewww....

Which reminds me: “Don't talk with food in your mouth”.

And “Do what you said you would do.”

And the three laws of the universe my kid's have learned:

The VERY first, and foremost is:

“Life isn't fair”.

As they get older and encounter difficulties:

“It's always something.”

and

“Nothing is easy”

Heh. Maybe it those can all be summed up as “No Whining”. We had that homemade sign on our bedroom door for many years!

I usually tell my kids to be extremely grateful that life isn’t fair. If we were to receive exactly what we deserved (for our sinful behavior) we would be miserable.

I always tell my nieces and nephews that no one thinks they’re special except their mama. You ain’t special until you DO something special.
