Mom

Mom

My mother once told me not to make faces or it would stick like that;
Not to swallow my gum or my stomach would stick together;
That eating carrots improves your vision;
That I could have all of the ice I wanted when I got my tonsils out;
Not to pick your nose or you'd poke your eye out;
"Don't pick a scab or it won't heal."
Bless her heart.
