They Forgot to Mention......

most everyone would agree that life isnt what they expected.

and things dont always turn out the way we would like them too,

but at least we would have more of an idea if they would have given us more of a heads up.

so heads up!

-your bound to turn out like you parents (one way or another)

-little sisters are cool so stop denying it

-marriage is not what you would expect

-ask questions. lots and lots of questions.

-vacation isnt something your entitled to

-raising kids is HARD. REALLY  HARD.

-prepare. prepare. prepare. for everything no matter what.

-work is overrated (so dont bother going to collage for EIGHT years)

-forget high school. life is nothing like it

-kids are little people. listen to them.

-you cant do it all alone. accept help.

-the future is scary. bring your teddy bear.

-cookies dont make themselves

-marriage is sacred.

-as much as you cant stand somebody that will be the person you cant live without

-as much as you think you know everything. you dont. and never will.

-always carry a snack with you. be it a granola bar or an apple. it will come in handy trust me. 

-yes you can ride the car all the way to "E"(and then some.)

-movies and tv lie. its all a bunch of lies. lies. lies. lies.

-the stupidest ideas make the greatest memories.

-you really do need to stop picking your nose. its not attractive. at. all.

-you have to pay back credit. (and then some)

-if its too good to be true. it is. walk away. WALK AWAY!!!

-listen to your gut.

-its ok to say no.

-being the bad guy isnt so bad.

-you are crazy. and thats ok

-sleep is beautiful. sleep as much as you can. whenever you can. 

-there such a thing as too much chocolate. 

but thats because you didnt have it with ice cream, sprinkles, and everything else!

-you will have to repeat yourself. alot. 

-the less you have the better

-driving a stick is way better then driving an automatic

-no you dont have to come to a complete stop

-yellow light means prepare. not stop.

-the little things do matter

-dont forget your hat. its more important than you think.

-dream smaller. and realistically.

those are just of few things they SHOULD have told us!!!
Did i miss any?

"are you like this even when im not around?"

"mom, i had a bad dream. i dreamed i got eaten by a monster.

"look at these crazy texts from my mom?"

in my element
