When your mom’s voice is so loud, even your neighbors brush their teeth and get dressed.
Silence is golden. Unless you have kids, then silence is suspicious.
I feel that way about my dog and cats. Chances are I'm right to be suspicious!
"My 4YO fell off his scooter, and before I could help him, he stood up, dusted off, and whispered to himself, “shake it off big dawg.”

Mom: You came out of my personal space.
You know you’re a mom when you understand why Mama Bear’s porridge was too cold.

My Mom would say "fall out" when we asked her what was for dinner. Fall out? "Yeah, whatever falls out of the fridge first."
I also say “ Gin & Tonics “ or “ Rat’s tails on toast” , last night it was “a bottle of Grange and fairy floss shots” ! Never get a the truth or a straight answer from the cook! 😉
My dad used to make sure this went a few more rounds... "What kind that I eat?" "The kind your mom makes." "What kind that mom makes?" "They kind you eat." Until said child screams "ENOUGH! WHAT'S FOR DINNER!!??!?"
My Mom had a plaque on the kitchen wall that read "I am Queen if this kitchen... I reign supreme. If you don't agree, STARVE!"
Mom: Set the table for dinner Me: Where should I set it? Mom:....... Me: .... Mom: 😐 Me: I'm going to go set the table.....
My Mum and Dad always said that to me. When we had our chef he used to just tell me.
This must have been my MIL... Cause this is the exact conversation I have with the hubs on the daily!

"At my daughter’s 4-year checkup, the doctor said she should be eating a varied diet and to make sure she’s eating a good amount from each food group and I think she said a bit about trying new foods but not sure cause I got distracted wondering if she’d ever actually met a 4yo."
We had a see-through candy bowl with pretty colored single wrapped candies, When the kids were little, you got a piece after dinner for trying everything on your plate. It was stressed, you don't have to like it - just try it. Unsurprisingly, they liked more foods by trying more foods. Worked for us, might not work for everybody although squash is still a serious no-go.
“I just watched my child individually pick off and eat every sprinkle on the donut I gave her. She has the patience for that, but can’t wait 30 seconds for me to pee by myself."

Whoever wrote the song “Easy Like Sunday Morning” did not have kids.

"My kids are never better friends than when it’s 30 minutes past bedtime, and they won’t stop giggling."

"I don’t want to sleep like a baby. I want to sleep like my husband."
I want to sleep like my wife. She's out cold (and snoring) less than a minute after her head hits the pillow. She doesn't hear a thing unless it's as loud as an explosion. I can lay there for 1 to 2-1/2 hours before falling asleep. Any little sound and I'm up and wide awake again. If I hear a song within two hours of going to bed, I'm singing the song in my mind for an hour. Sometimes I even switch to another song. lol

“Mom, are bugs good to eat?” asked the boy. “Let’s not talk about such things at the dinner table, son,” his mother replied. After dinner, the mother asked, “Now, baby, what did you want to ask me?” “Oh, nothing,” the boy said. “There was a bug in your soup, but now it’s gone.”

Just wait. Once they're a teen you'll be lucky if they speak in proper sentences to you 😜
"In the middle of the millionth meltdown of the day, my 5yo said “I’m just so frustrating” (instead of “frustrated”) and I’ve never agreed with her more."
Never doubt a mother! She can carry a screaming toddler, two gallons of milk, talk on her cell phone, and still shoot you daggers for looking at her crazy.

Night Mom: Tomorrow, I’m going to get up early before all of the kids, pack their lunches, go for a run, cook a healthy breakfast, and enjoy 20 minutes of silent ‘me time.'
Morning Mom: Hahahahahaha. Nice try.
Why is it that kids can get up at OMG hours at the crack of Dawn and be as bright as a button, most days, but on a school day, they can't drag their tails out of bed to save their lives. And the day is half gone already. I told my kids one morning at 7 am that, "Come on guys, school is half over." They were up and dressed really fast and sitting at the breakfast table before 7:15. Trouble is, it only worked once.

"Hey, parents of an only child considering having one more, know that I just split an M&M in half.

8 year old me: I'm bored.
Mom: I can make you not bored. how bout you clean these dishes.
8 year old me: I'm going to go play outside.
I don't suggest things for my kids to do. My rule is that boredom never killed anyone, but whining about it just might!
My nickname is Mom. But my full name is “Mom Mom Mom Mom Mom.”
I recently disclosed to my 3yo that my name is, in fact, not "Mom." He doesn't believe me.
Knock, knock.
Who’s there?
Yo mama.
Yo mama who?
Yo mama who knows you didn’t throw out the garbage like I asked you to.

Is there any way to file a temporary restraining against a toddler? Just like 24 hours, maybe two days tops. Asking for a friend.
I love my kids. Not enough to flip the fish sticks halfway through cooking, but I love them.
Before having kids, every mom thinks she’ll be a super-chill mom. That’s because, at that point, we had no idea they’d break all our stuff, make ridiculous demands, and take roughly 10 years to get out of the car.
Yeah I’d be the coolest mom ever if my kids were the coolest kids ever. Otherwise, we all just a bunch of humans 😂 frustration is normal

I heard one yesterday in a super market "mom why are you always so stubborn?" - "where do you think you got it from?"
Seriously though, put your phone down and take an interest in your kid(s). Give them a bedtime earlier than they really need and let them talk to you for 15 minutes or a half an hour putting off going to bed. Take 10 minutes a day listening to them as if you’re trying to impress someone else by how attentive you are. Praise them. It is literally now my job to assist kids with extreme behavioral problems and most of the time it’s because their parents are critical and checked out.
