         LOL! I find myself saying that a lot to my kids also!
         
         My all-time favorite saying, however, is: "It's better to remain silent and be thought of a fool, than to speak up and remove all doubt."
         
         I may not always adhere to it, but I think it's a great quote.

      I rarely use quotes but my dad sang that song on car journies to my aunt, when as a child and it stuck!

   My favorite saying has been "OMG" as of late, maybe because there has been so many moments to say it. LOL

   I love this quote from A.A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh: "Did you ever stop to think, and then forget to start again?" So clever and so adorable.
