if it rains while the sun shines....they say 'the devil is beating his wife'
I remember mom hanging a knotted rope on the porch. She said it would keep the snakes away.
She always said "if a child sings before age seven, they will cry before eleven"
"Stepping on Daddy Long Legs will make it rain"
"If you cut your hair during the full moon it will grow back faster"
"If you tickle an infant's feet, it will grow up to stutter"
"Always plant your garden on Good Friday for a plentiful harvest in the Fall"
"If the cat sneezes it means you will be receiving money soon"
Mom never let cats near a new born baby either. She said the cat might suck the breath out of the infant and kill it.
Great thread Jess! I'm remembering all kinds of things!
