When you're a mom, and you're starting to run out of 5-minute crafts faster than you run out of under-eye concealer, just wait until your kid's teenage years when you start to run out of patience!

Being a mother is a paradoxical experience. One minute you're cherishing your cherubic and adorable small human, relishing their cuddles and combing their hair and the next minute you're cursing the day you ever stopped taking your birth control. While you love this tiny creature–a strange reflection of yourself–they also simultaneously drive you insane. Perhaps that's what family is all about… riding the wave of emotions as the mercurial tides of motherhood wash over you. 

Moms deal with a delicate daily balance of mania and steadfast calm, so if you're in a moment where you need a little taste of both, scroll onward to enjoy this strangely calming collection of funny mom memes that'll give you the 2-minute break of silence that you needed today. Because laughter IS the best medicine for a migraine.
