I was just thinking back and recalled my mother telling me that if I did not practice, then later when I wanted to quit taking piano lessons that I would regret it. You know, about ten years have passed and I must admit, she was right. I hate it when that happens 
Mom was right about my first boyfriend - he was a jerk.
Come to think of it, she was right about boyfriend #2, #3 and #5 - jerks too.
She was wrong about #4 - he turned out to be an idiot.
One of my favorite sayings is “the older I get, the smarter my parents get.” It’s one of my favorites because in my case, it’s true. Especially with my mom. I used to think she was an idiot. Now that I’m a married adult with children, I realize that no, it wasn’t Mom. I was the one that needed recto-cranial inversion surgery. My mom was right about freaking everything, including putting on clean underwear before going out in public, waiting an hour before swimming after you’ve eaten a big meal, and yes, your face will freeze like that, dammit!
My mother has been proven right so many times now that I am firmly convinced that she actually did walk 27 miles to school, uphill both ways, barefoot, hip-deep in snow.
Well, as much as she hates to admit it, my mom is wrong!! Yes, she’s 71 and she’s a white-haired Wise Woman, but she is wrong, wrong, wrong!
She thinks the Internet is a waste of time. Hah! Shows how much she knows…
[how long have I been here geez is it that late i should get to bed]
I don’t even hate to admit it.
My Mom is a smart, smart cookie. I’m proud to have her as an advisor. She is sensitive, wise, psychic, lovely, beautiful, and young spirited.
I love my mom.
My first thought at reading the title of the thread: “She said there’d be days like this.”
Mama (PD) has been right and wrong. She has not yet had an opinion of an SO of mine.
