    Funny Messages for Mom 

    If making Mom laugh is more your style—or if showing lots of emotion is uncomfortable for you—a funny Mother’s Day message might feel like a more genuine way to connect with her. 

     

    • Mom, I was lucky enough to inherit your eyes and your sense of humor. I keep hoping I’ll get your lie-detector capabilities, too!
    • Happy Mother’s Day, from your favorite child. (It’s okay, I haven’t told the others.)
    • Roses are red, violets are blue. I brought you this Mother’s Day card…mind if I raid the fridge, too?
    • If I ever win the lottery, I’m totally making sure you get all the overtime pay you deserve for being our family’s taxi driver, on-call nurse, personal shopper, and referee.
    • One day a year to recognize a job that gets no days off a year? Get in the car, Mom…we’re unionizing.
    • You know, Mom, it was really cool of you to ignore all those times I got home past curfew. What, you don’t remember that? Haha, just kidding, me either!
    • I’m so grateful for your love—and the fact that you have never shared my bath-time pictures on social media.
    • This Mother’s Day, I’d like to propose a deal—I’ll promise to visit more often if you’ll promise to stop referring to the dog as my brother. Agreed?
