We all know that being a mom is not an easy job. Apart from raising kids, you also have keep your home in mint condition, look after the entire family, care for your husband, and so much more. With so many things going on in their lives, most people wonder how they are able to get things done without losing their sanity or their humor.
These 75 tweets shared by moms give us a hilarious glimpse at mom life these days.
1. That sticker
You just got to love this mom’s trust on her kid’s talent in art. Even if she wasn’t able to see it, she knows it’s good and her dad will love it. I wonder how dad reacted upon seeing that sticker.
2. When your kid walks into your room at night
Seeing your kid’s shadow can be enough to give you a heart attack in the middle of the night. It can feel like a nightmare just came to life.
3. A crying baby on the plane
This mom must have had enough of her kid screaming and crying on the plane. Unfortunately, she has no other option except to put up with the crying baby.
4. Pretending to be innocent
I bet that kid is going to throw a serious tantrum once he finds out that his mom was the culprit. As a kid, his mom would be the last person on his mind to eat his chocolate.
5. Not getting it
This kid still needs to study his lessons well. Even with a real-life example, he couldn’t figure out what a metaphor is.
6. The other names of “mom”
It’s not always easy to pretend that you’re not hearing your kid scream your name. He’ll go through all the possible names a mom goes by and yell each one until you finally look at him- with a Xanax on your hand.
7. Warning
This is so true. Just when you think your child is finally going to sleep, he finds a new sense of energy and gets out of bed like you didn’t spend hours caressing his back and reading stories to him. If I were you, I’d pay close attention to this warning.
8. Consider at your own risk
Having one child is already difficult. It becomes even more challenging if you decide and go on to have two.
9. Normal voice
Yelling is probably a normal thing for kids. No matter what they are doing or what they are trying to say, they’ll yell at you.
10. First child vs third child
First time moms are extremely careful. Once you reach the third child, things changes. You become less critical of things, particularly when it comes to food.
11. The loudest sound
Kids don’t have any sense of embarrassment. They are going to ask you whatever they want to ask you even if it means embarrassing you in public.
12. When it’s time to go
It’s hard to understand why kids take such a really long time to get ready. They won’t move until they see your face turn red in anger.
13. Mom knows.
When moms don’t like to share their food, they’ll pick something their kids don’t like on purpose. However, since they are mothers, they’ll still ask their kids if they want some (even if they already know the answer).
14. In church
Sometimes, we have to give explanations to kids’ questions in a way that’s easy for them to understand. Although not completely true, I guess this mom’s answer was enough for her kid.
15. Fish
This mom has a good sense of humor. I bet they’ll have a really great time in the beach.
16. Harsh
This kid has no filter. Good thing that he knows how to apologize for misbehaving. However, I’m not sure if he actually knows what he’s saying sorry for.
17. When kids leave for school
This isn’t harsh. Moms got to look after their kids, right? They just don’t want them to end up with diabetes or obesity.
18. Dada vs Mama
The excitement of being first time parents doubles as the kid begins talking. It’s like a contest on which parent’s name the baby gets to say first. After two more kids, one automatically gives up.
19. Should she get worried?
It takes courage to lock your own mom from her bedroom. It takes skills to pick a lock. Considering that, I’d say this mom should feel proud for having a kid that’s brave and skilled. Let’s jus thope that her kid doesn’t use his talent in doing something bad.
20. When everyone is hungry
Hunger will make anyone be less picky with foods. They’ll probably settle with cereal than wait another hour for a meal.
21. Who wins?
Contrary to what that child might be thinking, she’s actually doing her mom a favor. Being locked inside the bathroom, she’ll have peace and quiet even for a short time.
22. Not selfish
Moms, like this one, aren’t selfish. They just want to eat a piece of donut in peace. Who are we to judge her?
23. Only moms get it
Moms always have to do a lot of things before she gets to eat her food. By the time she’s done, the food’s already cold.
24. Crying over empty bottles
Even though she’s referring to two different things, this mom has a clear idea of what it feels like to have an empty bottle. She cries over it, too.
25. Moms need breaks, too.
No, they don’t really mean it. Even if their kids is making their home a living hell, they’d still want to see the kids at home. However, the part about needing a break, it’s quite true.
26. At age 5
Kids are different. While some are able to find their purpose at an early age, some are still exploring things like bathtubs.
27. On teaching lessons
This mom is acing parenthood. Mothers should teach their kids that not everything they see on TV and movies are true and acceptable.
28. Perfect timing
Kids like it when their parents listen to them. Unfortunately, they aren’t great when it comes to timing. They are likely to open up about their day just when you’re starting to feel sleepy.
29. A different kind of extreme sports
Children can easily get obsessed over things. And once they become obsessed, it’ll be very hard for them to let go.
30. Accurate
It’s hard to understand how moms are able to do all the things they do. It’s even harder how they are able to accomplish so many things within a day. I guess sleep deprivation is the key.
31. Why moms are late for work
Kids don’t know when they are being unreasonable. They’ll insist on what they want, even if it means frustrating their parents and making them late for work.
32. Waking up on the wrong side of the bed
This toddler is like an old man. He’s more annoyed about being corrected than the fact that he was looking for something that doesn’t even exist in the first place.
33. Reverse thinking
This is quite common among kids. The more you insist on something, the more they’ll do the opposite.
34. A good parenting advice
Parenthood is extremely challenging. If you don’t find ways to loosen up and entertain yourself, you’ll likely lose your sanity. Fortunately, there are mothers who are willing to share their expert tips.
35. Signs of maturity
You don’t really need to be 80 years old to realize that getting other people’s leaves on your lawn is annoying. However, when a kid points it out, it’s a good sign that he’s near the stage of maturity.
36. A tip during meal time
I guess moms should stop buying new plates for their kids. They should just place the food on their plate to get their kids to eat something.
37. About cleaning the house
It’s challenge to keep a house tidy when you have children at home. You can clean the entire day and expect the mess in less than 5 minutes. If you have toddlers, you can expect the mess to earlier than that.
38. Sabotage
This mom takes competition seriously. I bet her husband had a hard time containing the kids in that baseball game after they were given candies.
39. Fair
Moms don’t always buy a new set of dishes. Teens don’t always clean their rooms either. It’s a fair condition.
40. Makes sense
Kids tend to ask the most absurd questions. They also tend to be the hardest ones to answer. Just take this question as an example.
41. A little help
A lot of moms would be too happy if this happens in real life. Unfortunately, if this becomes a thing, I don’t think there’ll be enough nurses around.
42. An old phone
Teens these days will never understand how their parents’ way of life was when they were at their age. They’ll never understand the gadgets they used back in the day, too.
43. Shower and cry
This kid is starting to understand life at an early age. I bet he won’t have a hard time making adjustments once he starts working.
44. Cooking for people who aren’t hungry
These people are less likely to judge your cooking skills. I bet they won’t even pay attention to your food when they’re tasting it.
45. When mom wears pants with a button
This 3-year-old kid is probably used to seeing her mom without any pants on. So when she finally puts on a good pair of pants with a button, she can’t help but feel amazed.
46. Overrated things
These are the things you lose once you start having kids. If you’re not willing to sacrifice any of these things, reconsider the idea of having kids. You aren’t ready.
47. Something to think about
Some moms are living a more difficult life than you are. The next time you find yourself complaining, think about that.
48. At a school play
Well, you got to clap to motivate the kids. It doesn’t matter what you think. You have to clap to keep them going.
49. Peace, at last.
It’s hard to understand what you’re watching when you have kids running around the house while screaming. Good thing this mom is able to watch Peppa Pig all by herself. She got that glass of wine and couch to herself, too.
50. What going to the bathroom unfollowed feels like
Going to the bathroom without tiny feet following you is hard when you’re a parent. But when you finally break free, it’s like going on your long waited vacation.
51. Symptoms of having kids
The stress of raising kids can make you wonder if you’re sick, but don’t worry. The symptoms you are feeling are perfectly normal for a mom.
52. Learning dinosaur names
As a mom of a 5-year-old boy, you’ll suddenly find yourself a genius when it comes to dinosaurs. You can name them even by just touching the toys.
53. The first day of school
That splash of water completely waking your kids up is sure fun to look at. You know you shouldn’t like it, but you do.
54. Sleeping in
Parents don’t sleep the same way they do when they were still without kids. Now, sleeping in means being half awake and trying to figure out the wrong things happening downstairs.
55. Parents as drivers
Sounds right. Parents don’t get paid when they drive their kids around. They are even bombarded with tons of complains along the way.
56. When boys help with the dishwasher
Boys are rarely inclined to help with household chores. It’s almost as impossible as their father being their mom’s cousin.
57. A child’s point of view
Kids have a way of seeing the good side of things. If your hair is messy and tangled, it’s just having an adventure.
58. What parenting is based on everyone on the internet
People will always have something to say about your kind of parenting, particularly those on the internet. And if your parenting style doesn’t fit their standards, you’ll be judged wrongly.
59. A mom of a school-aged kid
The time a kid spends in school is a bliss for busy moms. It’s the only time they can be alone and enjoy nice glass of mimosa.
60. Pretend play
Pretend play encourages creativity in kids. Unfortunately, moms tend to get sucked into it. They have to verbally remind themselves of who they are.
61. The real purpose of refrigerators
Teens probably have a different idea of what a fridge does. For them, it’s an excellent place to store empty containers and boxes.
62. A not-so-good way to start the day
Moms don’t always wake up in a good mood. But when they do, their kids greet them this way. It explains why most moms’ good mood doesn’t last long.
63. Delusional optimism
Seeing your child’s playroom clean and organized is almost next to impossible. You’re probably delusional if you’re hoping to see your kid’s room that way.
64. Cold coffee
Most moms drink cold coffee and it’s not because they prefer their coffee that way. It’s just that they don’t have a choice with all the things they have to do.
65. The things kids eat
Kids have a knack for eating things they shouldn’t eat. If it’s not a multi-strand beaded necklace, it’s a tire from a toy car or a piece of Lego.
66. Food preferences
Moms have different preferences when it comes to their kids’ food. Some are too careful that they only let their kids eat organic food. Some are cool with kids eating candies that fell on the floor. Well, to each her own.
67. Being a helicopter parent
Looking after your kid and checking out everything he’s doing can be exhausting. If you’re a lazy person, this parenting style won’t work for you.
68. When doing a Lego project
This mom is staying true to her Twitter name. Despite that, she shouldn’t be judged for the way she’s raising her kid. I bet they have such a strong bong.
69. Positive thinking
This mom’s way of thinking is quite impressive. She’s still able to look at the positive side of her kid throwing tantrums on the family’s golf date.
70. A wise mom
This is a practical mom. She’ll be hitting two birds with one stone with this idea.
71. On Mother’s Day
Mothers want different things on their special day. In the case of this mom, it’s definitely not those commercials.
72. A test of patience
We all have an idea of what we want to be as parents. However, once we become actual parents, we end up exactly what we said we wouldn’t be.
73. The lowest point in parenting
Using a juice box as a chaser isn’t that awful. Let’s just say that it’s being resourceful.
74. Tedious
For a mom, seeing her kid opening things by himself isn’t boring. It’s actually a moment of relief. That’s one rare time her kid didn’t screamed for help.
75. Such optimism
Contrary to what most people think, motherhood isn’t always about laughter and giggles. Moms experience bad days, too.
