Amongst every friend group, there always tends to be one friend that is the 'mom' and takes care of everyone else. Now I don't know about you, but I am definitely the 'mom' of my friend group. It is something that I love and if you are the 'mom' of your group I bet you understand this feeling. That moment when you just love your friends so much you just end up taking care of them. Plus let's be real being the 'mom' of the friend group totally prepares you for being a real mom down the line.

In the end, the 'mom' of the group is always going to be there for you whenever you need it. That is the perks of having one in your friend group. It is the fact that you have someone to go to if you need anything and that there is someone besides your family who can be there for you if you ever need them. Even if it might be crazy or annoying sometimes to have the 'mom' friend, we really just want to look out for you and protect you because we care about you. Now I know it may sound cheesy and something that sounds like what your mom would say. But I mean we aren't the 'mom' of the friend group for nothing.
We do it because we care!
