Never honk unless a life is in danger.
Never lie {even the tiniest of lies}.
Dress like a girl.
Always do your visiting teaching.
Accept every calling.
Never gossip.
Go grocery shopping late at night.
Dress modestly.
Drink water.
Never say no to your hubby if he wants some {Don wishes I was more like my mom}.
Don’t go to the doctors, unless you’re really sick.
Don’t take medicine unless really necessary.
Go to college.
Read the Ensign and scriptures.
Be patient {if you know my mom, you know she is the most patient person alive}.
Tapioca pudding is delicious!
Buy things when you really need them, even if your hubby is a super, big cheapskate.
Sacrifice.
Play the piano and practice {I missed the whole practice-all-the-time thing, sadly}.
Put others first.
Music cures everything.
Never tell people others’ secrets.
I LOVE YOU, MOM!
This post is really cute Brenda. You know, if all of us were a bit more like your madre, the world would be a better place. She is such a lovely woman.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet post! Mom's are the BEST!! :)
ReplyDeleteOooops! I guess I shouldn't have honked all the way down your street last night when I was leaving your house. ;)
ReplyDeleteWOW ... that's a lot of good lessons to be learned! If only I had picked up on some of them earlier - I needed to know your mom before now, obviously ;) I love this post!!
ReplyDeleteI wish the person who honks every morning at 6:45 in my neighborhood knew your mother better...I guess that's where my patience comes into play.
ReplyDeleteGreat list...I think your mom would be very frustrated if I was her daughter. Good thing she got YOU!
Sounds like you have a very wise mom! I'll have to try to apply that honking advice to my life... it's so hard not to honk at all the four way stop cheaters I see on my work commute. ;)
