Being a friend mom is something that just comes naturally. You don't choose this life, it choses you. Here are some of the highlights of being a Friend-Mom
1. You wear jeans and a t-shirts a lot, like probably too much.
2. When you go out, you wear "nice" jeans and a t-shirt.
3. Your answer is always yes to questions that start with "hey does anybody have a..."
4. You've got a "look." It might be an eye roll, or a head tilt folded arm combo type thing, but there is a look.
5. People ask for your advice all the time, and when you don't know what to say, you make something up anyway and just try to be supportive (Side note to my friends: I don't mean that. I do know how to solve all your problems, don't worry.)
6. You really appreciate that weird adult humor that's hidden in kids' tv shows.
7. You hang out with other moms... Your mom, your grandma, your aunt, your other friends' moms. Whatever, they are cool ladies.
8. Your friends openly mock you for your most momish qualities - sorry not sorry, I very actively use my planner. I just like to be organized!
9. Sometimes you don't use your planner and things get a little out of hand.
10. Tina Fey is your idol.
11. You're genuinely worried for your friends' safety and well being. I hope you're all wearing helmets and whatever other protection you need. Also please stay hydrated.
12. You love the grocery store. Shopping lists are fun and you might keep yours in your planner.
13. Most of all, you really love your friends, especially the ones who need you the most as a Friend-Mom <3
** Please note that the only criteria for a Friend-Dad is that you jump off of less things, you are on time more frequently, and your clothes match.
