Mom and Me
My Mom's Top 10... (actually 11)
Best Words of Advice


In honor of Mother's Day, I'd like to share with you some pretty genius words of wisdom from my mom. She has always given great advice and also leads by example. She's just way too good to limit it to the traditional top ten list so this one goes to eleven. Thanks mom! Here we go, drum roll please....


11. Three letters: B.A.D. (Boys Are Dumb).
This little acronym got me through middle school.
10. Don't buy cheap sheets! Always spring for the higher thread count and never underestimate the benefits of a good night's sleep.
9. You can't change someone's behavior but you can change the way you react to it.
8. Ask questions.
7. On the best days - the ones with the bluest skies and brightest sun - take a mental photograph and file it away in your brain so you can pull it out when the sun's not shining. (That one's really important when you live in Michigan.)
6. Don't drink diet. Real cream. Real Sugar.
5. Our brains are like chests of drawers. A woman's brain has lots of drawers open all at once while a man can only have one drawer open at a time... unless we're talking about the sex drawer. That one is always open.
4. Make everyone feel welcome.
3. Stay out of the pity pool.
2. We are here to unite, not to divide.
and finally...
1. Be a cheerleader! Celebrate everything, be happy and supportive of the goals and accomplishments of others. And don't be afraid to throw out an enthusiastic "WAHOO" (preferably combined with a high kick) every now and then!

I'm sure you can think of a few gems from your own mother so don't forget to say THANK YOU or treat her to a special little something from Mushka this Mother's Day. Time is running out... order by May 1st to ensure delivery in time for the BIG DAY!

LOVE YOU MOM, HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!
