Your mom may be your best friend in the whole wide world. So on her birthday (and every day, for that matter), you want to shower her with all the love. First up on the mom birthday agenda is posting a pic on Instagram that celebrates the amazing person she is. Choosing the right selfie or adorable throwback pic may be difficult, but once you've picked out the perfect snap, that's when you need a cute mom birthday caption to pair it with.

The perfect mom birthday caption can be witty, thoughtful, or a combo of both. For your mom's special day, you want to post something that'll make her smile from ear to ear and have her feeling all the love. If she's always made you laugh harder than any comedian ever has, you might want to go with a funny “happy birthday” mom caption — even a birthday pun. Though, if you want to be as sweet as her homemade treats, you can go with a mom birthday caption that'll make her get a little teary-eyed.

Honestly, it doesn’t matter what you post — you know she’ll love it. That said, you want to make your mom’s birthday extra special with the perfect words. To do so, use any of these cute Instagram captions for your mom’s birthday that say “happy birthday, mom” in just the right way.
