You know you’re a mom when…
- All dignity and modesty has gone right out the window because your tot regularly uses your boobs as armrests, often pulls and/or lifts your shirt down and/or up in public, you pee with an audience and have zero qualms about throwing away a poppy diaper away in a public place.
- You hold doors open for other mothers with strollers because you’ve been there and it’s difficult to maneuver even for the best of us.
- You are able to tune out other people’s children’s outbursts. If it’s not yours, you’re not concerned.
- Time passes too quickly when you’re surrounded by friends and wine is involved, but moves at a snail’s pace when it’s just you and your child.
- Believe all modern conveniences; Starbucks, your favorite sandwich shop, the post office and dry cleaner should be offered in the drive through variety.
- Nothing brings you more joy than observing your child play, learn and grow on their own.

I find myself going a little out of my way lately to help moms with strollers and other baby stuff too. I have a whole new appreciate for all of them.
AMEN! I wholeheartedly agree (as usual) with your entire list!
Tonya…this is THE BEST you know you're a mom post EVER written…seriously – I love it!! And I didn't post it today – I suck! But – I'm stumbling this and tweeting it now!
Awesome once again! I always have much more sympathy for the stroller moms, or those with one on one hip and the groceries on the other. And yeah, I was once a modest soul….then came kids.
Love it! Especially the part of drive-thru's everywhere!
So sweet!
I get so annoyed when I see childless people in the Starbucks drive-thru. I think it should be reserved for mothers with children in carseats!
And yes, time does seem to move so slowly. What is it exactly that we are waiting for though?
I love this list and totally agree with it!
