Mom’s Advice For Me Mothers Day 2024

Mom’s Advice For Me Miracle Man Tom Wright Mothers Day 2024 Our mom was one of ten children. Her parents were farmers at a time when it required horses, mules and large families. She said that every child had daily chores that they were responsible for. Planting and harvesting was mostly done by hand. Some of the best advice that she passed on to me was. That Grand pa told them that “he had never heard of anyone dying from hard work.” Remembering this served me well in the successes I achieved in life that allowed me to retire at 56. I never settled for being just as good as everyone else because that would have made me just average. She told me that “cream always rises to the top” Another thing, when growing up, we had linoleum floors and she spent much time sweeping. Me and brother Joe, dared not step in front of her broom or we got a broom swat on the fanny and heard this “Trash goes in front of the broom and we’re not trash, just poor.” Mothers day is always hard for me Mom. I still miss you so much. Tom
