There are probably an infinite amount of things that go into being a mom—but something that most mothers can agree on is that a sense of humor helps... a lot! Just look at Ree Drummond and her kids. The crew is always playing pranks on each other, and it shows that laughing and finding the humor in the day-to-day just makes things all the better. So, as we approach Mother's Day, we think that reading a list of funny mom quotes is the perfect way to get into the spirit.
This list of Mother's Day quotes isn't exactly emotional—though, you may be left with tears of laughter in your eyes! There are some new mom quotes in here that are totally relatable. Take this one from Amy Poehler for example: “Sleep at this point is just a concept, something I'm looking forward to investigating in the future.” Other quotes on this list are perfect for empty nesters (like Ree) or moms of teenagers, like this sassy (yet silly) quote from Nora Ephron: “When your children are teenagers, it's important to have a dog so that someone in the house is happy to see you.”
These quotes are meant to make you laugh as you head into the sweet holiday. Read through them and let us know in the comments just which made you chuckle the most!
