A night out with your friends is drastically different when you’re the “Mom” of the group. The loving, doting and caring Mom who rubs backs, holds hair and tucks drunk girls into bed. From the pregame to bedtime, the Mom Friend never sleeps.
Stage One: Pregame
As the night begins, you find yourself helping curl hair and touching up makeup.
In your purse, you have a hefty supply of snacks, Band-Aids, lipstick and everyone’s phones.
You keep an eye on that one friend that always manages to get too drunk at the pre-game.
Stage Two: The Uber
You make sure everyone makes it outside and into the vehicle.
You take the liberty of sitting in the front and getting to know the nice Uber driver.
Stage Three: The Party
Once you lose a friend, you become a one person search unit.
When you sense a drunk argument arising, you’re the first one to break it up.
Your friends can rely on you to pull them away from people they probably wouldn’t talk to if they were sober.
Stage Four: Bedtime
You’re the first one holding back hair and rubbing backs the minute you get home.
You check on all your precious angels to make sure they’re safe and sound.
And you finally get to crawl in bed and watch your beloved HGTV.
