Sweet, huh? :) I was a little nervous about my mom reading this. But, she liked it. I hope you had a wonderful day! ;)<br /><br />Deborah - It seems we have to take the good with the... not so good? Being a perfect daughter, I've made it very easy for her. ;) And I don't really crack jokes. It's more like I say whatever pops into my head and tickles my brain. Since she's not privy to the characters inside my head, I try to cut her some slack. (Besides, they can't all be winners.) ;DKenya D.

Mind you, she's never been a great one for dishing out unsolicited praise, so swings and roundabouts, eh?Deborah Lawrensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16882043247450468229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154168822735325391.post-6204292702968489062011-05-09T04:57:52.153-07:002011-05-09T04:57:52.153-07:00Um, thunder thighs? *searches high and low and scr...Um, thunder thighs? *searches high and low and scratches head*<br /><br />What a fun and lovely tribute to your mom! :DSamantha Sottohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14116257082088369600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154168822735325391.post-79171033787347774952011-05-08T19:17:26.918-07:002011-05-08T19:17:26.918-07:00I doubt I'll be turning into my mom any time s...I doubt I'll be turning into my mom any time soon -- because she's so awesome and one of a kind (just in case she's rereading this post). ;D But, every once in a long while, I hear myself utter a mom-motto which freezes me in my tracks and makes me smile... I'll have to work on her daughter-adages. ;) Happy Mother's Day, Bella!Kenya D.

I smiled when I read, "judging by the awkward silences which assault my ears when I’m cracking jokes on the phone, I don’t think we always land on the same funny page." Such a typical mom reaction, don't you think? For many years my sisters and I have joked back and forth saying, "You're turning into mom," and this afternoon as I heard her advice, her stories of childhood...for the first time I thought, "Maybe it's not that bad!" :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154168822735325391.post-60758447338528990802011-05-07T20:05:26.854-07:002011-05-07T20:05:26.854-07:00Muriel - Thank you!

But, I have to bring my A game -- and keep it clean. ;D<br /><br />Monica - Thank you for stopping by -- and your kind words. I'm checking out your blog and "adventures" now. :) Have a great one!<br /><br />Scrollwork - Thank you so much for the vote of confidence! But, I've watched those emergency/paramedic shows since I was a kid. (I did the whole "what comes out of where?!")<br /><br />And I can't believe you told your brother he was found in a pig pen! Maybe if he hadn't been so good at finding truffles... ;DKenya D.

Love the imagery of the spit on the thumb--who hasn't experienced that--and of a younger you driving your mom crazy singing show tunes. A very amusing tribute filled with nothing but love.
