Mother’s Day is especially important for moms of surly teens. Once the constant hugs and adoration of the early years wear off, moms need this holiday. As this meme aptly illustrates, teens (whether enthusiastically or reluctantly) will typically at least be nice for Mother’s Day.

But moving on…               

Let’s not forget the more sarcastically funny Mother’s Day memes. You know — laugh at ourselves for some of our hilariously bad parenting tendencies.

In fairness, I have a lot of kids. I also have a lot of boys which requires regularly yelling, with zero notice, to save their lives. Expecting me to match the correct name with the child committing said deadly feat is asking a lot…

And of course, sometimes we lose our temper…

But what’s the big deal about Mother’s Day anyway?

Why do mothers even need all this acknowledgement?

Don’t they have birthdays for that?

(I used to think that. You can read my apology for that in my sincere Happy Mother’s Day letter to my mom.)
