Zero parking? Heinous crowds? Exhausted workers getting paid minimum wage? Ain’t no MOTY got time for that! No thanks, we’ll be living it up in our favorite sweatpants, eating leftovers and perusing the good ol’ internet for gift ideas while our kiddos watch too much TV today. If you’re doing the same this Black Friday, and you happen to have a badass MOTY or two on your shopping list, take a look at our top gift recommendations for the fierce, the compassionate, the exhausted and the brave:
1. Calm Down candle
Because every mama needs a little aromatherapy… to help her calm the F down. Plus, a portion of the proceeds goes to Every Mother Counts, a nonprofit that helps women around the world get access to maternity care.

2. YETI® cups
This beautiful invention actually keeps your coffee HOT. And because of the lid, you also don’t have to worry about your kids knocking the damn thing over. We’ve all felt the woe of spilled coffee from a bumbling, chaotic child.

3. Secret weapon socks
We like these because the message works for so many audiences… your child, when she takes for-fucking-ever to tell you a really boring story, strangers who give unsolicited parenting advice, your partner when you disagree… These socks empower you to just nod your head and smile with that vacant look in your eyes.

4. Some kind of #MomLife t-shirt
As mamas, we wear our hearts on our sleeves. We may as well literally wear our motherhood on our sleeves, too. We really like this design because 1. it speaks to our immense ferocity as mothers and 2. it hints at cursing.

8. Tiny Beautiful Things by Cheryl Strayed
If the MOTY in your life hasn't read this yet, she needs it... even if she doesn't know it. We all need the "radical empathy" of Cheryl Strayed and her Dear Sugar column.
