These oh-so-relatable scenarios are the perfect way to make yourself giggle this Mother’s Day!
Whether you’re a gin-loving mum to a furry child or a human child, you will definitely be able to relate to at least a couple of these funny quips.
Gin was your first (much needed) tipple after you gave birth to your little bundle of joy!
“Come to mumma!”
2. For every kid’s bake there is a gin-spiked grown-up bake. And you are always able to keep track of which is which…right?
“No, leave them. They are mummy’s special cupcakes!”
3. You have as many tonics in your fridge as juice cartons, maybe even more!
“Mums need to stay stocked up too!”
4. You have wondered what gin and Fruit Shoot or Capri Sun tastes like - you may have even done some testing!
“Mummy will get you some more tomorrow. I’m a mixologist now, leave me to my work. Go play outside.”
5. Your lovely little one has drawn a picture of you while at school that looks like you are holding a drink that’s suspiciously cocktail-like!
“The horror! What will their teacher think? Wait, never mind, she’s a Craft Gin Club member too. She gets it.”
6. The last couple of Halloweens have been full of questions about where you get all of that cardboard to make outfits for the kids and the pets.

“Well… there is this special club that sends the cardboard to me. It’s already in a box shape and everything! You just have to take out the gin, mixers, snacks and the magazine and replace them with a kid or a cat or dog. It’s easy really. “
7. Those other mums you met at NCT classes are now your best gin pals.
“It’s time for a mums’ only night in. Sisters that give birth together drink gin together!”
8. Now that they are a little older, you have cleared the trophy shelf of all those awards for taking part *cough* plastic tat *cough* to make space for your gin collection.
“Wouldn’t they look so much better in your bedroom or the attic, darling?”
9. You love sharing a G&T with your children now that they are all grown up and can share the gin love.
“Fancy a G&T, darling? Go on then, I’ll have one too. Is that a double? I’ve taught you so well!”
10. You don’t even have to tell your kids what to get you for birthdays and Christmas anymore.
“I’m easy to buy for, just think gin and you will always by mummy’s favourite!”
