There are things that all moms say. And we’ve all heard these “momisms”—

• Were you raised in a barn? Close the door!
• If I’ve told you once I’ve told you a thousand times….
• If you keep doing that your face will stick like that.
• Eat your vegetables.
• Drink your milk.
• Do your homework.
• Don’t sit so close to the TV or you’ll go blind.
• Turn the music down or you’ll go deaf.
• Look at me when I’m talking to you!
• Don’t give me that look!
• I love you!

Anita Renfroe captured some great momisms in her song that recounts everything a mom says in a 24-hour period.

But I’m wondering what your mom said that no other kids’ mom said. Use the comment section to share your favorite momisms.
