What Kids Say About Moms

This is taken from the book WHAT A WONDERFUL LIFE FOR MOMS: CELEBRATING THE WONDER AND JOY OF MOTHERHOOD.  I found this funny and wanted to share it with you today, for Mother's Day.

Life is wonderful because of the innocence and honesty of children.


How did God make mothers?
-He used dirt, just like for the rest of us.
-Magic plus super powers and a lot of stirring.
-God made my mom just the same like he made me.
-He just used bigger parts.

What ingredients are mothers made of?
-God makes mothers out of clouds and angel hair and everything nice in the world and one dab of mean.
-They had to get their start from men's bones.
Then they mostly use stirring, I think.

What kind of little girl was your mom?
-My mom has always been my mom and none of that other stuff.
-I don't know because I wasn't there, but my guess would be pretty bossy.
-They say she used to be nice.

If you could change one thing about your mom, what would it be?
-She has this weird thing about me keeping my room clean.  I'd get rid of that.
-I'd make my mom smarter.  Then she would know it was my sister who did it and not me.
-I would like for her to get rid of those invisible eyes on her back.

What is the difference between moms asnd dads?
-Moms work at work and work at home, and dads just go to work at work.
-Moms know how to talk to teachers without scaring them.
-Dads are taller and stronger, but moms have all the real power 'cause that's who you got to ask if you want to sleep over at your friend's.
-Moms have magic - they make you feel better without medicine.

What does your mom do in her spare time?
-Mothers don't do spare time.
-To hear her tell it, she pays bills all day long.

I hope this gave you a chuckle this morning and remember.....

God could not be everywhere, so he made mothers.  Jewish Proverb

Happy Mother's Day to my mom and to all the mothers out there!  Thanks mom for teaching me the most important lesson, about being generous...with my gifts, with my time and with my love for others.
