I'm always here for you.' At the time you really do think it is the end of the world. Those words were always so comforting because she was right! I use this with my kids all the time. My mother is a devout woman of God who has been struggling lately with family issues. Tomorrow I get to hug her and tell her 'It's not the end of the world.

I know it doesn't sound cool, and looks even less cool after typing it out but those little words helped me so much. she would remind me of this constantly, to the point of it being annoying (yes, mom, i'm in college, i have a test, i know i need to *try my best* geez). but outside of school now that i'm married i really see it in my every day life. it's helped me succeed in my past jobs. it's helped me in motherhood. in my marriage. in everything. valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07002646864812614576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872404900727553707.post-85226263850734997872016-05-04T14:08:48.252-04:002016-05-04T14:08:48.252-04:00Nothing life changing but my mom was quite the fas...Nothing life changing but my mom was quite the fashionista and had very strict rules about wearing white before Memorial Day and after Labor Day :-)Heather Marohnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872404900727553707.post-88443180499772003292016-05-04T13:52:02.544-04:002016-05-04T13:52:02.544-04:00my mom told me not to be afraid to leave a man at ...my mom told me not to be afraid to leave a man at the altar!Anna Whiston-Donaldsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14921348961654008115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872404900727553707.post-44566368083655011562016-05-04T11:49:28.429-04:002016-05-04T11:49:28.429-04:00My 99 yr old grandma said the key to staying healt...My 99 yr old grandma said the key to staying healthy is walking every day and taking a calcium supplement.

Meaning if someone asks you out that you are not totally into, you should go because you never know who else you might meet (or you might end up having a really good time and end up liking that person). Funny that was her saying because I met my husband when I was dating a good friend of his.
