In honor of Mothers for Mothers Day, what are some of the things that mom always said while you were growing up?

I'll start it off ... one of the many sayings that my mom would say is


"if you can't say anything nice then don't say anything at all"

Enjoy

Forgive and bless.
She said that a lot.

Very happily or totally not.

Don't be Jeremijahing (she had that from her mom)

Oh and don't complain, but carry and pray for strength

And a favorite: een kniesoor die daarop let
A sulk ear who pays attention to that.

And her favorite song which she sang was: I'm Gerrit and I steal like raves. I'm a villain in the eyes of the brave.

and one other song: and it all doesn't matter cause we love each other holadijee holadijo

My mom use to say a lot of little cryptic sayings that had to be decoded. It's funny how she motivated me by them. The one that helped me survive nursing school was
"Cain't nuthing fail but a try.". I know how that sounds y'all, but it caused me to ponder and to wonder about my capacity to accomplish whatever I wanted to do.

If you're too sick to go to school, you're too sick to play outside.
