10. Exposure to biological warfare on a daily basis! Until self-cleaning babies and laundry are developed, all moms deserve heaven!
9.

8. Mom’s develop a close relationship with God through daily prayers: Please God make them well and safe, please God make them go to sleep, be quiet, and please God: don’t let them ask “WHY” one more time!

6. When she arrived at the pearly gates and told St. Peter she was a mother, he misunderstood her to be Mother Theresa.
5. If you have ever wondered WHY you signed up for this (at times unpopular) job in the first place at 5pm, then wondered how you could ever live without them at 9pm as you watch them sleep, you deserve to go to heaven.
4. If you’ve lost any sleep after becoming a mom, you deserve heaven where you can get some. Oh, and you can wear white again!
3. "Because I said so" was meant to be the 11th commandment.
2. Moms can feed an entire family with one package of mac and cheese and a few hot dogs…(sound familiar?). And finally,
1.The number one reason why moms deserve heaven:
For all the times she's saved her child's life...
