Mother’s Day is right around the corner and the holiday means something special for everyone who celebrates it. Ahead of the holiday, we decided to take a look at Twitter to see how people are feeling about it this year. After all, we’re living through an unprecedented global health crisis, and mother’s day is going to look very different for many of us this year.
As you might imagine, folks are feeling a certain way. And by “certain,” we mean uncertain. From businesses being temporarily closed to travel restrictions, some people are unable to visit with their moms or even eat at their favorite Mother’s Day brunch spot. There’s a lot in flux around Mother’s Day 2020. Let’s take a look at some tweets that perfectly capture this moment and other tweets that will definitely make you feel better about it.
There are classic jokes about making babies.
Mother’s Day is coming should I give my mom some flowers or a grandkid ????

And, jokes specific to the moment we find ourselves in.

Mothers Day is coming up on May 10th. My mom was the greatest… she always let one of the kids lick the cake off the beaters after making a cake but I knew I was her favorite because for me she always turned the mixer off first. pic.twitter.com/VYdfwXNPH1
