Mom: How about this book bag, Petey? Petey: I like my old one. Mom: Your old one is falling apart. Mom: This bag is made of ultra light waterproof 1,000 denier polyester. It was tested in the Himalayas! Petey: I don't like it. Mom: It says they successfully hauled the complete works of Charles Dickens up Mount Everest in one of these bags! Mom: And it's got a built in parachute! Petey: I don't-wait-what? Mom:This ring opens the chute. Petey: This? Mom: BANG Petey: GAH! Petey: MOM Mom: This bag is fine. Petey: Mom is a dangerous lunatic. Alice: No she's not. She's getting me this lunchbox that makes its own cheese sandwiches by magic!

This is epic. Moms are subtly hilarious when you least expect it.

My mother shaped my personality and helped make me what I am today. If she wasn’t deceased, legal action would not be out of the question.

All of them.

I like to think I was that kind of mom. I have always enjoyed making all the Halloween costumes, murals on their bedroom walls and themed birthday parties.
But then I WAS a stay-at-home mom with nothing else to do (but took in dressmaking and calligraphy on invites) and had 4 children in 5 years before I quit (having more).

Madeline really knows how to put the fun in back-to-school shopping!
I had a great mom, and she would have been 109 next month.

Mom is doing her best to preserve her own sanity, Petey.

She reminds me of Calvin’s dad sometimes.

Madeline is the best! She makes back to school shopping look so easy… My mom is still going strong at 101; just moved in with me 2 months ago.

Does Petey grow up to be Charles Montgomery Burns? An uncanny resemblance in Panel 5.
