Welcomes, moms, mommas, and mothers. For many, motherhood is filled with unexpected trials and tribulations. Everyone knows that infants do not often sleep through the whole night, but there is no real way to prepare anyone for the full mind and body exhaustion that comes with the lack of sleep in first year or parenting.No parenting book or podcast could truly prepare anyone for the experience of cooking exactly what your toddler asked for to their very precise specifications, only to have them throw a tantrum about it.  You may remember quite vividly being a sassy teenager, but having the tables turned on as you suddenly become the recipient of pent-up hormones can be downright jarring and maddening. 

Of course, it's not all that bad. In fact, with the unexpected hardships comes unforeseen hilarity. Children are en endless source of joy for their innocence and out-of-pocket comments. Their fresh perspective on a complicated world lets them make seemingly absurd connections that upon further inspection are actually quite astute, wise, and funny. If you're a mom in need of a good laugh amidst the ups and downs of motherhood, check out these hilarious parenting Tweets.

    John Smillie @JohnSmillie42 Imagine it's Sunday morning. You've been allowed to sleep in as long as you want, and you have no chores or responsibilities all day. There's fresh fallen snow on the ground. Your mom makes. Cinnamon rolls and serves you breakfast. But you're almost 3, so you are blind with rage.

    Marcy G @BunAndLeggings One of the most painful things I've experienced as a parent is watching my kids reject naps. It's almost like they don't understand that those nap minutes don't rollover. They will never get those naps back.

    James Breakwell, Exploding Unicorn @XplodingUnicorn I just congratulated a kid for throwing up on tile instead of carpet, in case you wondered how far your standards fall when you're a parent.

    Becky Vieira | Witty Otter @wittyotter_ Raising kids is like being constantly surrounded by a tiny sales team. They're always trying to persuade you into doing or buying something. And they assume everything you say is just an opening offer.

    Mommy Needs A Life @mom_needsalife I think the most important part of parenthood no one tells you about is the minute you buy something in bulk your kids will decide they don't like it anymore. It's fact.

    Stephanie Ortiz @Six_Pack_Mom *** "Oh, that's just a whine-scream, which means she didn't get what she wants. Different from the 'there's blood scream, which is a much higher pitch." -Veteran parents, remaining seated.
