Being a parent doesn’t mean you have to give up your sense of humor.

Nowadays, selfies are almost more common than those traditional photos where someone else took the picture.

Every now and then, a selfie is so perfect that you just have to recreate it to keep the memory alive, then add a bit of your own flair.

These moms did exactly that, but with a humorous twist.

They decided to poke a little fun at their boys while they were at it.

The boys were enjoying a day at a Dodger’s baseball game when they decided to send a sweet selfie to their moms.

It was their way of letting them know they were safe and having a blast with their friends.

A thoughtful gesture, right?

But these moms weren’t going to let that slide without a bit of fun.

Instead of simply replying with some heart emojis or a thumbs-up, the moms decided to take a more creative route.

Since they were all together at the time, they thought it would be a fun idea to create their own version of the selfie to commemorate the moment.

They put their heads together and got to work on their master plan.

When the boys saw what their moms sent back, they couldn’t help but laugh.

The moms nailed it!

They even matched the direction of the baseball caps, the drinks in hand, and the thumbs-up gesture.

Some of them even managed to perfectly mimic the expressions of their sons.

It was a near-perfect recreation that left a lasting impression.

Reddit users also got in on the fun, finding the whole situation hilarious.

One Reddit user, ibarabi, mentioned that it reminded them of another classic image where parents spoofed their son’s Facebook photo.

Apparently, there’s a growing trend among parents to recreate their kids’ selfies for a good laugh.

These recreations often turn out to be as entertaining for the parents as they are for anyone who sees them.

Of course, the kids might have mixed feelings about it!

Another Reddit user, miistahmojo, had a witty comment on the moms’ selfie recreation, saying:

“Tickets to the game with buddies… $125 Baseball cap… $35 Stadium beverage… $9 Awesome moms sending you to the front page of Reddit… Priceless.”

It’s clear these moms are pretty awesome.

One person even noted, “The moment when you realize your moms are cooler than you… I’ve had that moment too.”

The fun didn’t stop there.

Another user shared a family photo recreation that was “complete with a handmade adult onesie,” proving that these kinds of playful moments are cherished in many families.

One more selfie recreation featured a guy snapping pictures with his new phone, only to have his dad and brothers mimic the shot—right down to the identical hats.

It’s moments like these that showcase the joy and humor that can come from simple, everyday interactions.
