Finally a pair of socks for me. I wanted to do something with a bit of a pattern just to keep it interesting. I found this pattern on Ravelry but if you are interested the link is here: What is “My Mother Says…”?
You know all those sayings your mother said to you as you were growing up? That's what My Mother Says is all about. It all started with me saying something goofy my mother always said to me and it made my friends laugh hysterically. I soon learned it wasn’t only my mother that had a few words of wisdom…everyone has something funny their mothers always said that they may use as adults now. You have the classics like “Do you think money grows on trees?”, “The dishes aren’t going to wash themselves!”, and “Keep doing that and your eyes are going to get stuck like that!” My favorite of my mom’s is “Your big enough, old enough, and ugly enough, to do it yourself!” Meant only in the most loving way of course!
What is my goal?
I want to hear your mom’s sayings! Some may be funny, some sentimental, some meant to instill the fear of God in you as mothers do so well! Reach down in your memories and have a good laugh. You may not have to reach far, as I would love to get some kids point of views as to what mommy tells them all the time. Or you may be a mom and find yourself telling your kids the same thing! If you submit a saying we are asking your name, age and where you are from because I hope to be able to get these from all around the world. So once you leave a saying please let your friends know about us too.
My goal is to get enough sayings to put together a book of them. Once I have enough I would like to team up with the Susan G. Komen Foundation to have a portion of the proceeds go to Breast Cancer research. As Breast Cancer has affected many of our lives through mothers, grandmothers and friends, I think it is only fitting for the memories we stir to benefit a good cause.
Thanks for checking us out and I hope you leave a little piece of you with us before you leave. Make sure to check out our recent posts on our Recent Submissions section.
I think this is my favorite spot to knit. This chair belonged to my grandfather on my dads side. I never got to know him but...I love his chair!
