What would we ever do without our mamas? Yes, they can be hard sometimes, yes they don't always understand our perspective on things, but they're as awesome as ever. We try to say that we are nothing like them, but honestly we are. We have all picked up some weird habit from her without her noticing it.

To prove it, here are 8 signs you definitely got it from your mama ...

1. You use this hand gesture too often

You don't only use it when you want to threaten someone, but have also come to use it when you want to tell someone "wait" without actually talking.

2. And have picked up the habit of saying to'borny to express your love

You sometimes even say it to her without realizing, giving her a taste of her own medicine.

3. You love hosting azeemas at your house

And you become just as crazy as her when it's your own gathering.

4. Eating bizir is the only stress reliever you know of

Those late nights when you just put the bag of seeds in your lap and yallaaa with the binging.

5. When traveling, you secretly put those red ribbons on your luggage

Even if you travel with a bright yellow bag with cheetah prints that no one in the world could/would ever own, you somehow feel more secure if those red ribbons are present.

6. You use the word "inshallah" when you don't want to flat out say NO to someone

Sometimes it's just the easy way out of something. You know, no commitment no nothing.

7. You automatically flip the shahata when you see it upside down ... and ask others to do so too

Because you don't want the shaytan coming after you now, would you?

8. When a new baby is born, you automatically say he/she looks like your side of the family
