To always seek God. Also she passed down from my great-grandfather to always learn one new thing per day.

I would love to give my mama this <3
That we cannot forget the past but we can move forward and learn to focus in the now.
Faith. Never leave the house without it.
Always wear clean underwear and never leave the house wearing pajama pants! You never know what your day entails! :)
Family is everything.
Always wear clean underwear! ;)
There is a reason for everything, you just have to wait around to see what it is.
Always smile at people.
Money is the least valuable thing on this earth, your children will always be the most valuable. (she told me this while waiting in a courtroom trying to leave my abusive and very wealthy father. she risked her life to keep me and my sister safe) I love you momma <3 (:
Wonderful things happen to wonderful people.

My mummy has always said to love every last itty bitty inch of myself, because every itty bitty inch is a blueprint from God.
xo *fingers crossed*
Love, Kerrie
My Mom gave me the best advice after we got married: don't attempt to change a man. He is what he is. Don't think you have the power to change him just because he is married to you.
Always wear clean underwear
and
Good things happen to good people.
ooooh so pretty :)
Take all the advice people give you with a thank you and a smile, and read all the books you can but only do what you are capable of....you are not a SuperMom...no one is.
oh and my mom always said, "Never talk to weirdos".
my mother's best advice she ever gave me is "A Disney movie a day keeps maturity at bay"... and I live my life by that creed!!
Yes, she definitely does always know best...and feels the need to remind you of it! But of course, we all love our moms. <3
My mother has told me many things and all of them i hold them close to heart: "take everything you hear with a grain of salt," "be aware, be courteous," "it's all a conspiracy," and "please don't make me a grandma, yet."
All things pass....LOL.
My Mom told me " Your life is a canvas in which everyday you add a new brush stroke. As long as you allow the beautiful colors of those who love you and the things you love to be on you pallet, your life will be a masterpiece."
As a new momma i want to teach my daughter that life is beautiful now matter what hardships it might bring. It's just part of life and we learn a great deal from them.
My Mum always told me (and still tells me) to follow my dreams and don't ever look back with regret.
Never assume anything...ever.
Mom told me if you're going to have sex while on your period, do it in the shower. Less messy.
Take life one day at a time.
My mom always told me....People will forget what you've done, they will forget what you said, but they will always remember how your made them feel....I love my mom!
My mom always said "It's not about you". Great advice from a veteran mom to a newbie. :-)

My mom has a great sense of humor, so she "amended" my grandmother's (her mom's) advice, "You can't eat looks on a plate" to quip, "but it sure helps when the person eating opposite you is a feast for the eyes."
Her more serious advice was simply this: "Be strong; the only person you can rely on is yourself."
Don't sweat the small stuff :)
I'm sure there isn't a mom out there that wouldn't like this mug! So Pretty!
My mother always said, "Don't write anything in an email or online that you wouldn't want in the newspaper." Lol.
"stick to your values and beliefs and don't let others change you" - quoted from my lovely mum!
btw - such a pretty mug! X
ooh, i like it!
My mom always said about life... "You can always count on yourself and God to be with you".
"have fun while your boobs are still perky!" -mom
Believe in yourself. Be yourself. Trust in the Lord.
Mothers really do know best.
"Don't take any wooden nickels" ~ Mom :)
Ask the Lord for direction in all you do. Without Him, life has no meaning.
You can't change who someone is and always will be, just like how I will never be changed by anyone.
Follow your heart <3
Happiness is found within. So, if you're looking in others to make you happy, you'll never find what you seek.
"If you're going to do something, don't do a half-job of it ... give it your all!"
Be true to yourself and stand up for what you believe in, even if it means standing alone or getting hurt sometimes.
to always wear clean underwear.
And things happen for a reasons.
She a very wise women.
That it is more important to be beautiful inside than outside<3
"If you put things away as you go, you won't have a mess to clean up when you're finished." -My Mother<3

Don't forget to say "Thank You", so thank you for the chance to win.
"If you don't expect anything, you won't be disappointed"
My mom always reminds me that we can't control most things that happen in life, but we are in control of how we react. It reminds me to think before I speak or act

My mother has always encouraged me to show kindness to others even when they do not show kindness towards you. She is one of the kindest and warm-hearted people I know - a fine example.
"Be with someone who treats you like a princess, like your Dad treats me." :)
One of my Mom's 'famous. lines after someone makes a mistake is, "You live and learn."
Or when I ask her what I should wear, she says, "Something in your closet!" =]
Sleep when the baby sleeps! Best advice she ever gave me.
Whatever kind of person I may be now, it's because of my Mom. She had always been there. Supporting and guiding me all the way.
My mom always said 'things are never as bad as they seemed the night before'
