You Know You're A Mom When...

- poop, pee, throw up, and snot have gotten on your clothes and hands without bothering you

- a visit to your bathroom is "me time"

- you remember things by your kids' milestones.

- you sometimes secretly laugh at young single people who don't have kids when say they never have enough time or energy

- you tear up because your child said "I love you" whether they know what it means or not

- you look forward to naptime so you can get stuff done

- you look at stretch marks as battle scars

- eight o'clock PM sounds like a great time to go to bed

- holidays seem to sneak up on you

- it takes you twice as long to do everything

- children's helmets, harnesses, and straitjackets don't seem like bad ideas

- the one thing you want at the end of the day is peace and quiet

And last but not least, you know you're a mom when...
- no other experience can or ever will compare to the birth of your child(ren).
