Ah-choo! Nelson, when you sneeze, you should try to do it into your handkerchief. My mother had a saying … Coughs and sneezes spread diseases. Use your hanky and other will say thanky. I don't have a handkerchief. Can't I just use my sleeve? She had another saying ... Use your sleeve and your mother will grieve. Your mom had lost of sayings, didn't she? You have no idea.

Mmm … The house smells good! Sniff sniff. Did you get some scented oils or something, dad? No, your mother tried to kill a fly with air freshener spray. It didn't work, though. Now the little booger buzzes around smelling up the house!

Nelson, what on earth possessed you to do such a thing? I was just trying to get the gum out of my hair. I guess I got a little carried away. What do you think your mother is going to say when she sees this? Oh boy - no more snarls.

Look at this painting, Earl. What do you see? Don't worry. There's no wrong answer. Umm … George Washington playing the bongos? Wrong!! It's my mother petting a cat!

Why is Nelson sulking in the chair? He's mad because I won't let him go outside unless he puts on a pair of long pants. But like my mother used to say, you can be happy in the same pants you're mad in. Does that even make sense? You don't argue with my mom.

Mom, have you been sending things to my wireless printer? Why, whatever do you mean, dear? Pictures of cute little babies?! Oh, aren't they just adorable? Wouldn't you like to have another one? Or two?

What's going on with our printer, Dan? Huh? It's been spewing out pictures of babies! Look, here comes another one. That's very strange. You don't think … Mother! Print print prints.

Aunt Pearl, my mom told me that you and my dad used to date. Is that true? Yes, dear. Many years ago. But then he dumped me for your mother. So I guess you've never forgiven him for that. Oh, I've forgiven him. I just make him miserable now for the fun of it.

My daughter Sylvia bought a new dress yesterday. I complimented her by saying that I have a dress just like it. I thought she'd be happy that we could now dress alike. Was she? No. She returned it to the store and got her money back.

Sylvia and I were talking at lunch yesterday. Yeah? She told me that when she was little she and a friend used to cross a very busy road to buy candy at a store. Really? I'll bet she'd have been in big trouble if you'd found out about it back then. What "back then"? I don't care if all grown up. She's grounded for life! |

Dad, you make it sound like mom makes all the decisions in your marriage. I'm sure that's not really true, is it? No, you're right. We do make all our decisions together. Or at lead I'm often in the same room when it happens.

I don't like school. My teacher is mean. Oh, that's too bad. But you should try to be like this flower, Nelson, and bloom where you're planted. No matter where I put this flower, it blooms. It doesn't whine and say, Oh, I don't get enough sun! or Poor me, I don't get enough shade! It just keeps on doing its best, not matter what. This flower is plastic. Yes, there are many lessons to be learned from Mother Nature.

This quilt sure is heavy. Don't you like it? It's the one my mother made. I didn't say I didn't like it. I just said it's a little heavy. Well, it does a good job of keeping us warm, doesn't? That's true. It does a good job of keeping me from getting up to go to the bathroom too. I've been trying for 10 minutes!! |

What are you doing with that feather, Opal? It reminds me of my mother. She used to say she wanted to be like a feather... Firm but with purpose but light at heart. My dad said he wanted to be like an old tree stump... Stubborn, immovable and in everyone's way. |

Aargh!! This puzzle is driving me crazy! Maybe you should just give up. Never!! Sometimes I take a few pieces out of the box and replace them with pieces from another puzzle. Mother! That's terrible! What? It keeps him busy longer.

Have you always been an artist, gramma? No, I'm afraid I was a it of a late bloomer. I'll never forget the day I drew a picture for my mother and asked her to put it on the fridge. She looked at me and said, "You're 24 years old."

I didn't understand your text, Sylvia. I invited you to lunch and you texted me "k." Mom, "k" is just a shorter, easier way of texting "okay." Do you understand. Yes, Sylvia. I understand. It's too much trouble to type three extra letters for your mother.
