Don’t count your chickens before they hatch.
Don't count on something happening until it actually does
Gather 12 dozen eggs everyday
Once in a blue moon
All of the time
Only once in a while
Break a leg
Snap your bones
Good luck
Her smile is a ray of sunshine.
Her smile is very bright and welcoming
Her smile is yellow like the sun
Don't cry over spilled milk
Don't worry about the little things
When there's a spill, clean it up

Cats and dogs are falling from the sky
It's raining very heavy

I want to actually eat a horse
I'm so full
I'm SO hungry

His heart skips a beat

The alarm clock went off loudly

He got it exactly right
He picked up a hammer and hit a nail
The stars danced in the sky.
The stars put on tutus and danced a ballet
The stars were shining
She spilled the beans.
She knocked over the baked beans
She let out a secret
He was as quiet as a mouse.
He is very loud and can't be quiet
He is very quiet
As busy as a bee.
Very busy
Not busy at all
