Did I Just Say That? Five Phrases That Come Along with Being a Mom

The initiation to motherhood may seem like it starts the second your little one is welcomed into your world. You begin to learn a lot from your little one...from adjusting with new protective mother-bear instincts, to breezing through a productive day with an average of four hours of sleep (or less). But when do you know you’re officially a mother? Maybe when you realize…you’ve become your mother.

“Did I just say that?”

Oh yes, mama, you did. And it’s okay.


Here is a list of the top five phrases stemmed from popular motherly language clichés that come along with the task of raising your little one. Words that you swore you may have never been able to roll off the tip of your tongue after hearing it first from your mom or someone alike.


Stop crying, or I’ll give you something to cry about. This phrase comes shortly after becoming a reality in your life now as a mom. The tears...the wailing...doing everything you can and more to please your baby never seems enough. Yes. These words are regrettable and tough, but we all know it’s a typical heat-of-the-moment phrase.


Oh..I’ll tell you why. Because I said so. We get it mommies, it gets difficult finding the right words to make your little ones understand why things can’t always go their way. This golden phrase is just another way of saying mom is the boss.


It’s for your own good. We know that you always have the best intentions - even though your little one may not understand until they’re standing in your shoes.


Running away? I’ll help you pack. It’s a classic reverse-psychology tactic that takes your child a step back from a trip to attitude-land.


And lastly, the notorious, I told you so. It’s not always a bad thing giving yourself some affirmation that you were right. Once this classic phrase makes its way out of your mouth, you know you’ve made it as a mother.

What are some of your parenting phrases you thought you’d never say?

    It’s hurt when husband told you “I don’t need you in my life anymore.” My husband left me for another woman 3 months ago and ever since then my life have been filled with pains sorrow and heart break because he was my first love whom i have spent my entire life with. A friend of mine told me he saw some testimonies of a spell caster called Priest Salami that he can bring back lovers within some few days, i laugh it out and said i am not interested but because of the love my friend had for me, she consulted the great spell caster on my behalf and to my greatest surprise after 2 days my husband called me for the very first time after three months that he is missing me and that he is so sorry for every thing he made me went through. He came back to me and now we are happy together. I still can’t believe it, because it highly unbelievable. Thank you Priest Salami for bringing back my husband and also to my lovely friend who interceded on my behalf, for any one who might need the help of this great spell caster Here his contact.

    I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him

    With so much in my heart I am here to express myself on how Priest Salami saved my marriage from divorce. Myself and my husband were having some misunderstanding and it was tearing our marriage apart to the extent my husband was seeking a divorce. So I have no option other than to go to the internet to seek a solution to my problem. It was there I came across Priest Salami details and about how he has helped a lot of people by restoring their relationship. I contacted Priest Salami and in less than 48 hours my husband cancelled the divorce papers. Now myself and my husband live together in peace and harmony all thanks to Priest Salami for saving my marriage from breaking up.

    My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough.
