Six Word MOMoirs -- Memoirs For Mom

Posted by Cole Gamble

Brett brought you Mom in One Word.  Now you have six. If you are familiar with the six word memoirs from Smith Magazine (as complied in Not Quite What I was Planning) here is a mother's day bent. Smith is looking for six word memoirs for Mom this mother's day. Here are a few to get you started:

Naps became the most precious minutes.

Stretchmarks are the roadmap of life.

I really miss seeing my feet.

Could be poop, could be chocolate.

so love him when he's sleeping.

Every day is like groundhog day.


Alright, that should be enough to get you going. If you're a mom, write your six-word memoir below. If you know a mom, write a tribute. It only cost you six words.

I know it's cheating to do three. If I had to pick just one six-word memoir, it would be the first one.

1. Laughing, reading, tickling, snuggling - it's bliss.

2. Happiness is not the whole story.

3. Sometimes I miss the old me.
