You know you're really a mom when...

1. You count the sprinkles you put on each of your kid's cupcakes because you don't want a fight.

2. You are always ready to fight your kid's battles even if it involves another child.

3. You have just enough time to shave only one leg every now and then.

4. You tend to hide in different rooms in your house, especially the bathroom, to get some alone time to yourself.
