Some days with these 3 go so smoothly I wonder how I got so lucky. Other days, I feel like I’m failing & not sure how we will make it through the day. This morning started off a little rough but by 7:30 everyone was happy & fed. Hopefully this day reset & the smiles in this pic set the tone for family pictures later. My fingers are crossed everyone smiles & we get even just one pic! ??? @isaacelliottr @thelincmarshall @theluxrussell #kailandthechaos

The Teen Mom 2 star shared how some days are good, but on others she feels like she's "failing and not sure how we will make it through," concluding with the story of how that morning had started off on the wrong foot but had eventually turned around.

This isn't the first time Lowry has opened up about the challenges of being a single mom, especially when she is constantly in the public eye.

Nothing like a bowl of your favorite cereal and milk to start the day! @theluxrussell loves his cereal for breakfast, and as a mom I feel good knowing that adding real milk gives him nutrients he needs to get through the day. When it comes to kids and what milk they should be drinking, it can be so confusing with all of the options out there. That’s why it’s important to read the labels to know exactly what you’re getting as non-dairy “milks” don’t offer the same nutrient package as dairy milk. For me and by boys it’s a no-brainer, we love real milk! #LoveWhatsReal

The star has often been called out for various parenting choices she has made, from choosing to not cut her son's hair to holding him too often, and has responded and defended her choices every time.

“I’ll cut it when he tells me he wants to cut it,” Kail responded to a Twitter user who said the length of her son's hair made him look like a girl. “But you can mind your business lil momma.”

We're glad to see the star being open with her fans about the real life of a young mother-of-three, and wish her family the best.
