There’s a lot to get through.
As any parent will know, mornings with children in the mix are pretty hectic. There’s getting them up, dressed and ready for school, making them breakfast and packing their lunches and that’s before you even get yourself ready.
You feel like you’ve done a day’s work by the time you drop them off at school.
Hilary Duff recently posted on Instagram about feeling a little overwhelmed by the morning chaos too and I’m sure many people can relate.
The 35-year-old mum of two said:
“OK, a few thoughts … 100 percent real talk this is the first day I had two kids on my own on a school morning. Breastfeeding and making breakfast, getting two kids and myself dressed and packed and out the door while tripping over four dogs and feeding the damn fish was not easy.
“But I did it. And I’m proud of myself! Im proud of every mom out there who MAKES IT FREAKIN HAPPEN. All day! Everyday! You are the shit! Bad ass, super goddess , world taker oner and you deserved to be praised. P.S. laying outfits out for me baby and Luca was essential lol I even got 5 minutes to do some make up ….. then turned around to see Luca had used my lipstick as warrior paint on his face.”

Other parents took to the comments to thank her for her honesty and plenty could relate to Hilary’s struggles:
“Thanks for this! We just had our second and never thought it would be so hard juggling a three-year-old, an infant and a career. The husband works a lot so he isn’t home for the morning craziness. As I write this post it’s almost 3am and I’m up with the baby only to have to get up in another 2.5 hours to get everyone ready then go to work. I pray there’s no toddler tantrum to throw another wrench into an already stressful process. The struggle is real. Hang in there— getting into a routine makes it easier!”
Another added:“You’re such a warrior! You’ve been a role model for me since I was a little girl. My favorite actress by far.”
And a third said:
“Woman are the backbone of the world.”
Indeed we are!
