Famous Mom Quotes
Thomas St., Charleston, S.C.
I took this picture around the corner from my house on Mother's Day a couple of years ago and always liked it. I hope she got breakfast in bed as well as her flowers and newspaper. Have a good day. Enjoy your little ones. Before you know it they are across the country getting their Masters Degree.
Here are a few Famous Mom Quotes...
MONA LISA'S MOTHER: "After all that money your father and I spent on braces, Mona, that's the biggest smile you can give us?"
COLUMBUS' MOTHER: "I don't care what you've discovered, Christopher. You still could have written!"
BABE RUTH'S MOTHER: "Babe, how many times have I told you to quit playing ball in the house! That's the third broken window this week!"
MICHELANGELO'S MOTHER: "Mike, can't you paint on walls like other children? Do you have any idea how hard it is to get that stuff off the ceiling?"
NAPOLEON'S MOTHER: "All right, Napoleon. If you aren't hiding your report card inside your jacket, then take your hand out of there and prove it!"

Beautiful photo. I love the flowers on the sidewalk path. They make the the entry look welcoming.
Thanks Jacob!
Waldo - So true. My daughter called and I wanted to say, "But you haven't called me since ....". I didn't, but only by biting my tongue.
Sunshine - I do, I have two great kids but they were both out of town. My son promised me dinner tomorrow.
