Christina Duron’s mom is having a particularly hard time, but that hasn’t stopped her from sharing all of her daughter’s photos on Facebook—she just never gets the names right. 

Duran, a 21-year-old student at Texas State University, shared a collage of her mom’s mishaps on Twitter Sunday, and it’s funny in that accidental way that only parents can really pull off.
