Number 12! Oh my goodness! I'm like you just spanked me, and I shouldn't be crying?! These were good ones and often heard!
LOL - seems as this nowadays doesn't work any longer as Moms aren't any longer respectful persons. At least this trend is obvious in some European countries.
Guilty on all charges ...heard them as a kid and said them to my kids :) Aren't mothers great? Thanks Robyn ...sure brought back memories.

I love these Robyn. There are a few of those that both my mother and father said as I was growing up. I'll share this fun post.
I'm with Terri. #12 stands out. "Keep crying. I'll give you something to cry about." Miss mom. Thanks for sharing. Liked and Shared.
