12. Don't spend what you don't have.

I think your Mama is a very wise woman and a good teacher! Some great pearls of wisdom there I may need to borrow.
Mothers - they surely do know stuff!
Great list. Your mum is ace.
And aren't these just the best? So good to stop and remember how great our mother's are....I am so glad you did this. x
I just wanted to pop in and say, Thank you so much for your thoughts during the recent passing of my father.
Much appreciated. Love reading your blog, and realy did appreciate your comments.
What a beautiful mother you have.
I'm so pleased you have received some good news re your mother's treatment.
Oh, I just love the one about being a good Mum but not a good cook, that sums me up so well. Your Mum's a legend!
