Mom's Pearls of Wisdom part 2

My mom gives great advice:
The best advice she ever gave me? "Don't just automatically take advice from someone who has something to gain from your decision. Pay attention, and think it through."

Thanks, mom. You were sooooo right. Unfortunately, you also shot yourself in the foot for later gems such as "You know what's great to have--kids!" and "I think you should move to Utah."
Busted by your own advice. Story of every mom's life at some point or another.

Of course, it worked out for her okay on one front, since she does have two grandkids (just so we're clear, that's not because she told me to). Don't hold your breath for our relocation, however.

My mom is wise.
