What else are moms for if they're not there to remind you about all of the things you forget about daily? Heaven knows we would all be a mess if we didn't remember all of the important events and tidbits of information our mothers choose to share with us. Here are some, but definitely not all, of the important reminders we tend to receive from our moms:

1. She never lets you forget about how hot things are.

“The oven light is on for a reason, sweetie. Pay attention to it.”

2. God forbid you take a study break.

“I don’t care if you’re a senior in high school or a senior citizen. Go do your work.”

3. Sunny and 70 degrees? She doesn’t care. Don’t forget your coat.

“So what if you’ll be inside most of the time? You’ll freeze to death before you even make it there!”

4. You are never allowed to get out of calling relatives. Ever.

“I am well aware that Grandma sent you another hat for Christmas but call and tell her you love it.”

5. A messy room is basically the same as mass destruction.

“How do you ever have friends over in this mess?" "Clean your room or just never go out ever again.”

6. Your siblings are your friends, not your punching bags.

“BENJAMIN MICHAEL, PUT THAT BASEBALL BAT DOWN AND GET AWAY FROM YOUR BROTHER RIGHT THIS INSTANT.”

7. You never are allowed to forget who the champion at Hide ‘n’ Seek is.

“If I go into that room and find your cheerleading shoes, you’re not going to be happy.”

8. She never lets you miss a holiday. Like, any holiday. Ever.

“It’s Abe Lincoln’s birthday! I sent you and your friends all some pennies! You’re welcome!”

9. If you’re ever away, she tends to make sure you remember that your pets exist.

10. You basically are never allowed to miss school.

"Oh, you're sick? Take Tylenol. You're going to school." "Oh, you broke your leg? Take Tylenol. You're going to school." "You're dead? That's too bad. You're going to have to take some Tylenol and go to school and act alive."

11. But the most important thing she always reminds you about is how much she cares.

"I'm yelling at you for leaving wet and muddy tracks in the hallway because I care and don't want you to slip and fall and crack your neck. I also don't want to take you to the hospital, I have a very busy day ahead of me."

It doesn't matter how old you get, because your mom doesn't care about age, or about how many times she's told you the same advice over and over again. She cares about you knowing it all. So thank your mom for the advice, even if it seems as pointless as a circle.
