Parents are not perfect. Sometimes, we're running on empty, and doing our best is not all that impressive. One mom was brave enough to share the ultimate brain-lapse moment that took place during her morning school drop-off run.
Let's preface this by saying that getting the kids out the door for school, regardless of their age, is no small feat. Backpacks and lunches and a number of other things all need to make it in the car or on the bus with each child. It's a lot to juggle.
Now back to this mom. She shared a video of herself pulling up to the school to drop her kids off. There was just one problem. Mom turned around to say goodbye and noticed her backseat was empty.

"They're not in the car! I'm driving to school without my kids!" she laughed hysterically as she realized what she had done. Turns out, mom forgot her kids at home.
School drop-off is not for the weak of heart. Getting the kids out the door with everything they need in tow is hard enough. Battling traffic to get them to the right entrance can be torture, especially if your kids go to different schools.
Let's be honest: No matter how much of a morning person you may be, your brain is just not at its best between 7 and 9 a.m. One mom showed just how out of it you can be during the daily grind with a hilarious video that's now going viral.
A Twitter user shared the video of a mom laughing hysterically upon realizing she drove all the way to her kids' school. The only problem? She forgot her kids at home.
"They're not in the car! I'm driving to school without my kids!" she says through her laughter.
"I am taking the kids to school and I don’t even have 'em in the car," she continues to say. "I have to go back and pick them up! I can't believe it — I left my kids!"
Moms all over the internet were tickled by this super-relatable moment.
"I was supposed to go to school and I got in the car and left," the mom continues. "Oh my God, I'm such an idiot! I was half asleep this morning. Where are my kids?"
The video has amassed over 4 million views. Parents can totally understand just how that kind of thing can happen.
One commenter asked to see what happened when she went back for the kids. Sure enough, there was another video that shows her kids laughing just as hard as she was at the mix-up. Her older son is filming her hysterical reaction as they get into the car.
People were even more amused to see that the kids were not very little. It's hilarious imagining a mom forgetting her two teen boys, since they're kind of hard to miss. While sometimes the internet can get on parents for the smallest things, this reminds us that we're all hot messes just trying to figure it out.
