Put the seat down
Remember your manners
No, you can't have something ELSE for dinner..you'll have what the rest of us are having
Go get a d@mn tissue
I probably said half of those same sentences today alone.
One of my personal favorites is one from my Mom.... "You guys are acting just like Laman and Lemuel!"
My husband just told me that I am always yelling, "I have to clean up everyone's messes... but does anyone clean up my messes? No!"
It's true ya know. The slobs.
You hit the nail on the nose! The only thing I have to add is I tell my daughter to "Use a tissue when you blow your nose!" She is 4...what can I say?
I take care of my niece once a week... here are my classics.
Do you have to go to the bathroom? No? Then stop doing the potty dance.
Look both ways.
Don't make that face at me.
You don't have to want to, you just have to do it. (That one is from my mom.)
Eat like a princess.
Be nice.
Wipe.
Wash your hands.
I don't have your eMail so you can eMail me tkc615@gmail.com and we can design your blog too! Yay I am excited!!
I find this to sacred to add too.
Amen sister. Amen!
"If I got everything I wanted...."
Oh Jeni. You outdid yourself. This is too funny. (And sad, since it's so true.)
How about "Drink some water!"
You probably wouldn't think you would have to tell a 13 year old that, right?
At least the school nurse got to give the speech for me.
Hahahha.
I updated my blog Mom!
I'm constantly asking, "Did you wash your hands???" after Levi goes to the bathroom. You'd think by now he'd have it down but for some reason he's convinced himself that doing a #1 isn't germy.
That's a great list. For girls- come here so I can do your hair! Stop moving!
"No, you may not have any more chocolate today!!"
"Can you please flush?"
"DO NOT SPIT ON PEOPLE!"
You're a great mom!!!
Stop peeing in the backyard
Get your hands out of your pants
Wash your hands- with SOAP
-Can you tell I have young boys?
GREAT LIST!
I am stealing a great many of these! Especially the, "No I'm not evil just determined" and the heh, heh, heh, "Dragon Breath" one.
I loved Ilene's "Don't pee in the backyard one!"
