What have your parents taught you?

I attended a wedding recently. During the ceremony the pastor told the bride and groom to take all of the things that their parents taught them and bring them into their marriage. So that got me thinking. What did my parents teach me that I brought to my marriage. Here they are, some serious, some just everyday living facts.

•  My dad taught me not to brake when my car was hydroplaning.
•  My dad taught me that life isn't fair.
•  My mom taught me to poke holes in my baking potatoes so they wouldn't explode
•  My dad taught me how to run a bead of caulk.
