You Know You’re A Mom When….

Mrs. Muffin Top shows us she knows exactly how we feel in her list of 20 ways you know you're a mom.  It's a list filled with humorous sympathy for all the less than glamorous character traits that apply to all moms.

Some of my favorites:

1. You've used spit to clean something. Most often it's a kid's cheek.

2. You've gone longer than two days without taking a shower, and been okay with it.

3. Used the kids as an excuse to get out of sex with your spouse.

4. Worn dirty clothes taken from the hamper.

5. You can't remember the last time you replaced your razor since you shave your legs so infrequently.

6. You've snuck into your kids' rooms at night to watch them sleep.

7. Thought to yourself “they're so perfect” while doing #6.

8. Had a conversation with a friend while saying to your kids, “It's not polite to interrupt.” or “Let Mommy finish first, Sweetie.”

It's like Mrs. Muffin Top is writing about me personally. Because she's writing about all of us. It feels so good to know I'm not the only one!

What would you add to the list? There are so many things! Check out the other 12 ways you know you're a mom over at Mrs. Muffin Top and then share your own additions in the comments.

I'd like to add: You know you're a mom when your lunch consists of bites from your kids' leftovers. Tell me I'm not the only one.
