We all love our moms, but let’s be real– Lorelai Gilmore takes motherhood to a new level. Her coffee-crazed, martini-drinking, sarcasm-wielding persona is everything a daughter needs in her life.

1. When she cultivated a caffeine addiction at an early age.

2. The time she understood breakups perfectly.

3. The time she threw this epic birthday bash.

4. When she put up with teenage sleep habits.

5. When she gave the best hugs.

6. When she taught Rory the value of a lazy Friday night.

7. The time she expressed her love by chasing Rory down the street.
