The Best Things You've Learned From Your Parents

I think my 'down to earth' trait was something I picked up from my mom... if I wasnt taught that by her, then I certainly learned it by watching her life. I will always be grateful to her for passing on her dark sense of humor, including her sarcasm, to me. And something she had to tell me before I really completely noticed it for myself... she sarcastically remarked one day, "Oh the HORRORS, I've raised my daughters to be INDEPENDENT WOMEN!" I'm more than grateful to her for that. <3

My dad... well, he taught me that a check doesnt always go as far as you'd like it to (or need it to), so budgeting is always good. And his unintentional lesson was keeping a watchful eye on how much I drink.

How ya doing, buddy?
