Let me be clear, I LOVE my kids with all of my heart, soul, and being. But sometimes being a mom is hard. On days when I’m at my wit’s end, I turn to funny mom memes. They always make me feel like at least one other person gets me. Keep reading to check out my favorites!

Funny Mom Memes That Will Make You Feel So Understood

Let me preface these funny mom memes by saying that I wouldn’t trade one second of my life with my kids for anything in the world. Motherhood has its rough days, but it’s also full of so many good moments that make for a lifetime of great memories. I felt like I should make that clear upfront because I don’t want anyone to take these memes the wrong way.

1. The REAL Definition of Motherhood!

New underwear is just one of the many things parents secretly sacrifice for their kids! Hey, at least they’re clean though…right?

2. Peace is a house full of sleeping children!

I look so peaceful when my kids are sleeping!

Everyone always says that their kids look so peaceful when they’re sleeping, but honestly, that’s when I look the most peaceful, too!

3. Childbirth is the easy part!

Do not fear childbirth, that’s the easy part. There is no epidural for motherhood.

You’d think they’d have a Lamaze class that teaches us how to breathe through the pain of those first few sleepless months. Wait, did I say months? Make that YEARS!

4. I really didn’t expect to get out of the car!

My personal style is best described as “I didn’t expect to get out of the car.”

I can’t even tell you how many times I wore my “no one will see me, anyway” clothes only to end up standing in my kids’ school talking to moms who clearly knew they were getting out of the car that day.

5. Sometimes, you have to unleash your inner T-Rex!

As much as we always try to keep our cool in public, sometimes we can’t help but unleash our inner T-Rex at home.

6. You never know how weird you are…

You never know how weird you are until you have a kid that acts just like you!

I’m actually REALLY proud that my kids are just as “weird” as I am! 😀

7. Wait until I tell your mother!

When my kids act up in public, I like to yell, “Wait until I tell your mother!” And pretend they’re not mine.

Sometimes, you just have to pretend that you’re the babysitter!

8. What’s that in your mouth?

funny memes only moms understand — Kids catch you in the kitchen “What’s in your mouth?” And I’m standing there like, “Nothing.”

Think they believe me?

9. Must love wine…

Currently approving my kids’ friends based on which parents I think will drink wine with me on playdates.

What’s better than getting together with a like-minded mom and drinking wine slushies?

10. Fantasy vs. Reality

Where I want to go on vacation vs. what I can actually afford.

Even though we’re very fortunate to live near the beach and be able to take short family vacations frequently, my “dream vacations” vs. what I can actually afford are often miles apart!

11. Talk about a Neverending Story!

When your kids keep telling a story and it won't end. — When your kids keep telling a story and it won’t end.

Forget the scene with Atreyu’s horse. My kids’ neverending stories bring me to a whole different kind of tears! (Kidding! I actually love it when my kids share their lives with me, even if it means listening to a VERY looooooooooooong tale).

12. Choose wisely!

A banana is 105 calories. A vodka soda is 64 calories. Choose wisely.

Hey, I’m all about healthy eating!

13. Silence is golden, especially when that silence is coming from your kids’ toys!

Kid: "Mommy, how come my tiger doesn't roar anymore & all of my cars stopped making 'vroom-vroom' sounds?" — “Mommy, how come my tiger doesn’t roar anymore & all of my cars stopped making ‘vroom-vroom’ sounds?”

Pro tip: When they’re old enough to know that it’s because the batteries are dead, pretend that you keep forgetting to buy more!

14. Where’s my Golden Globe?

In all fairness, my husband is great. He knows that dads don’t babysit kids, they raise them and he is just as involved with our children as I am.

15. 1% is actually being generous

Honestly, I think that 1% is too generous. I remember some days when we just gave up and left without eating at all!

16. My face when kids say they looked for something…

Kid: “I looked EVERYWHERE on the whole entire planet, I swear!”

Me: Finds it in 0.000003 seconds exactly where I said it would be.

17. Personal space? What’s that?

Most days, you’re lucky if you manage to use the bathroom all by yourself!

18. Other people’s kids vs. mine

Funny parenting memes — Other peoples kids vs. my kids!

FYI, there’s actually a touching reason why kids are 800 times worse when their mothers are around.

19. How can a tiny person take up SO much space?

When your kid takes up all of the space in your bed even though there should be plenty of space for you both.

Seriously, just like there was plenty of room on that door for Jack, there’s plenty of space in the bed for both you and your teensy-tiny person.

20. I really did used to be cool!

Remember when we were cool? Now, we spend most of our lives arguing with smaller versions of ourselves about everything under the sun!
