Dear mom friend, you are the greatest! You know who you are. You’re the friend who is beyond her years, who takes care of her little ducklings. You’re the sane one in your friend group.

You’re the momma bear at the bar - from keeping creepers away from your flock to counting everyone getting back into the Uber.

You’re the ultimate bargain hunter. You have coupons from every store imaginable, and you always come home with a great grocery haul.

Speaking of groceries, you also know what to do with those groceries. You can make pretty much anything out of anything.

You’re the one spraying the friends who are sunburn-prone more than once at the beach.

You make sure that your friends text you when they are home safe and sound.

When people are over, you’re the ultimate hostess when it comes to potlucks, birthday parties, making sure everyone is comfortable and, of course, fed.

You’re the friend holding our hair after a party and making sure we drink plenty of water before passing out.

You’re always there to decipher texts from the POI of the week.

You’ve been there rubbing our backs and handing us tissues while we spill to you all of our regrets from the night before.

You’ve always reasoned with us when we’ve considered going all C Underwood on an ex.

You are always down for a Ben and Jerry’s run at that special time of the month.

When things go haywire and we are “ legit so done,” you’re there to hold down the fort.

You always make sure everyone is fed all the time; you’re basically a soup kitchen 24/7 for your broke college friends.

You’re everyone’s Mary Poppins, whose purse and room literally has anything we could ever need.

You’ve got us hooked to daytime TV shows like "The Chew," and HGTV and the Food Network.

You make sure everyone’s shows get recorded and everyone is caught up with them.

You’ve always have the candy from Dollar General in your purse for when we go to the movies.

Last but not least thank you for always coming in with the W, with the ugly sweaters for Tacky Sweater Parties.

So, thank you, mom friend. Thank you for being there for us during the highs and lows, and for always supporting and loving us unconditionally.
