Moms

When I prepared my lesson for the primary kids a couple of weeks ago, I came across some cute quotes. My lesson had been on the role of mothers. I had the kids make a poem (the older kids) or draw their mom's face (the younger kids) and attach a cute pre-made poem on the inside of a homemade card. Here are most of the quotes from which I raided:

You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can’t fool Mom.
I smile because I'm your mother, I laugh because there's nothing you can do about it.

Only a mother can share love with all of her children, yet give each child undivided love.

The next best thing to having you as a mother is knowing that my children will have you as a grandmother.

A mother understands what a child does not say.

All moms are working moms.

Most mothers and daughters bond, but some are crazy glued!

There is no friendship
Nor is there a potion
That is as strong as
A mother's love & devotion!

Shhh! Mom is in time out!

A mother holds a special part of all that is treasured in the heart.

Motherhood is not for wimps.

Whether rich or poor,
Kids in and out the door,
Babies crawling on the floor,
A mother couldn't ask for more.

Cordless mom... recharge with hugs!

A father's love calms fears. A mother's love dries tears.

There are three ways to get something done. 1) Hire someone to do it. 2) Do it yourself. 3) Forbid the kids to do it.

A rich child often sits in a poor mother’s lap. – Danish Proverb

If at first you don't succeed, do it like your mother told you.

A real mom knows where to hunt for her missing kitchen utensils... in the sandbox.

Nothing can bring a smile to a mother's face like those three little words, "Time for bed".

If I had no kids what would I do for aggravation?

One thing moms and cats have in common. . . spit baths!

All the words in the world can't say what a hug from Mom can.

Mom loves hugs and kisses and help with the dishes!

Mom stands for "Manager Of Messes".
