As far as mums go, Scottish maws are truly in a league of their own.
While their quirks and sayings might seem a bit odd to those outside Scotland, we wouldn't have it any other way.
In fact, there are certain things that Scottish maws are so well known for doing and saying that if your mum doesn't, her entire existence may even be called into question.
From telling you to guzzle back Lucozade when you're ill, to their predictable Christmas gifts, the good people of Twitter know what really makes a Scottish mum.
A great family meal is the ideal way to say thank you on Mother's Day
So here's to all the Scottish maws on Mother's Day.
And remember, if yer maw doesn't do ALL of these then you need to ask yourself: "Is she even yer maw?"
1. When they tell you that lie that you keep falling for
2. When they try to get their money's worth
3. When they use their phones in the most awkward way
4. When they're after your keep money but you want to treat yourself
5. When they hit you with this accusation for the millionth time (It's just a sore belly!)
6. And when they knew better than the doctors
7. When Scotland gets its one day of summer
8. When they blast you for running up the lecky bill
9. When they make you your favourite meal
10. When they want to get their holiday fashion just right
11. When the phrase "She could talk for Scotland" couldn't be more accurate
12. When you were bad and they would roll out this old chestnut
13. When their Christmas presents got too predictable
14. When they use this strange method of communication
15. When they knew exactly how a weekend should be spent
16. When they gave you a wee confidence boost and a pure riddy at the same time
17. When they knew how to shut you up quick (or make you cry even more)
18. When they have zero concept of the word 'privacy'
19. When they have their own retro phrases for everything
20. And when they forget the name they chose for you at birth
This was originally published as 'Is she even yer maw?' 15 times Twitter perfectly summed up Scottish mums, but we found some more great tweets.
