For all the hardworking moms out there, enjoy Mother’s Day and I hope it’s filled with plaster-of-Paris handprints, soup can pencil holders, macaroni necklaces, spa gift certificates and dinner reservations. 

Whether you’re a mom or you just have a mom, here’s some fun quotes for this week.

• I sterilized my first baby’s pacifier by boiling it and my third baby’s pacifier by blowing on it.
• This year our Mother’s Day dilemma is do we spend $100. to buy mom flowers, or spend the $100 on gas to fill our SUV  to drive across town to see her.  Hmmm? 
• My favorite t-shirt to wear when running errands with my kids says,” Who are these kids, and why are they calling me mom?”
• The term “Whoops” in our house, really means “get a sponge.” 
• Life is way too short to deprive yourself of chocolate. 
• My daughter takes after me.  She left me this voicemail, “Mom, if you get this message, call me; if you don’t, then don’t worry about it.”  
• I learned that on Mother’s Day, not only am I in charge of buying my mom’s gift, but my mother-in-law’s present as well, and I can’t forget to forge his signature on the card I bought for my MOL from him.
• You know you’re a mom when you automatically double-knot everything you tie.
• I learned that that I should never put my son on the top bunk when he’s wearing his Superman pjs.
• It’s true; you still need to do chores on Mother’s Day!
• I learned that my kids think my worst feature is my singing.  “Stop it” or “Shut up” usually follows when I attempt to mutter along with the radio.
• I learned I turned into my mom , when I found myself saying things like; “You’re sitting to close to the TV.”  “Turn off the lights, you’re wasting electricity.” “Just because Ethan’s mom said it’s OK, doesn’t make it OK.” 
• I learned I can be a tough mom, really.  I can put the fear in my kids with just one sentence.  “Just wait until your dad gets home.”
• “When your mother asks, ‘Do you want a piece of advice?’ it is a mere formality. It doesn’t matter if you answer yes or no. You’re going to get it anyway.” Erma Bombeck
• “I want my children to have all the things I couldn’t afford. Then I want to move in with them.” Phyllis Diller
• Any mother could perform the jobs of several air-traffic controllers with ease, while sleeping.
• “You don’t really understand human nature unless you know why a child on a merry-go-round will wave at his parents every time around – and why his parents will always wave back.”  William D. Tammeus
• The only reason men are alive is for lawn care and vehicle maintenance.
• Anytime you worry that you weren’t a good mom, remember at least your kids didn’t turn out like Bin Laden. 
• Bin Laden is buried at sea, once again surrounded by seals.  Osama Bin Laden is finally rotting in HELL with Hitler.
• And why are they worried about the Bin Laden photos being too gruesome, most Americans would want to use it as their screen saver.  JL
• The menu in my house growing up had two choices ; eat it or starve.
• I know I’m a mom, when I draw smiley faces on the bananas I packed in my kids lunches. 

What are some of the crazy things your mom has done? What crazy things have you done as a mom?
