Take it from Mom… because when it comes to advice who dishes it better than her?  Okay, we know, maybe you get a little more advice than you want but, seriously, who has more wisdom than Google, more intellect than Alexa, and is ready to dish it all with the dexterity of a ninja at any (and every!) minute of your life?  Mom, that’s who!  Who else would say things like… “Why doesn’t anyone ever appreciate that I stay up every night overthinking for them?” or “Dinner tonight has two choices on the menu, take it or leave it!”  So, yes, she’s got a lot to say, and especially about motherhood!   Here are some humorous lines we love…

• “You’ll know you’re a Mom when you realize WHY Mamma Bear’s porridge was cold.”
• “Just about the time you realize your Mother was right then you have a daughter and realize everything you do is wrong!”
• “It’s important to have a dog in the house so when your children grow to be teenagers someone will be happy to see you when you get home.”
• “Motherhood takes a lot of patience, humor, and wet wipes.”
• “If you want to get your children’s attention just sit on the couch and look comfortable.”
• “A mother’s day isn’t 9 to 5, it’s from when she opens her eyes to when she closes them.”
• “There will be a point in motherhood when “What did I just say” could be a threat or a genuine question.”
• “You know you’re a Mom when after a long day and you are completely done with your kids you decide to sell them on EBAY but instead, realize YOU MADE THEM so you choose ETSY instead.
