Do you remember when summer was the best season ever? As a kid, it meant no school, tons of time to watch cartoons on TV,  and plenty of opportunities to play outside or in the pool with your friends. Sometimes it even meant that you'd go on stress-free vacations planned and coordinated by someone else. After college when you joined the workforce, you finally reached the age where you don't really get a break just because the weather is hot. But if you planned your vacation days carefully, you could still enjoy a peaceful day reading by the pool with your besties. 
Then, you became a mom; it was the best moment in your life, but you had to make a few sacrifices. Summer is one of them. Now you spend these hot days trying to keep your kids busy and counting down the days until school is back in session! If this sounds like you, scroll down for memes and Tweets made by witty moms that feel your pain.

    HoneyMustardMama @HoneyMustard Ma *** I'm jealous of toddlers and their lack of social norms. @HoneyMustardMama Imagine seeing someone you don't want to talk to, and the second they open their mouth, you just scream "NO" in their face and run away.
