Quotes:
“I’m not going to lie – it’s hard work having four kids and doing all the work I do. Everybody has something to say about the way I live my life. At the end of the day I’m doing my best. If people don’t like it, then that’s really their problem. Sometimes I cope with it very well, sometimes it’s a struggle. It’s a challenge juggling everything – multi-tasking is my middle name.” – mama Madonna on being a mother of four.
“My children are my first priority and because they are older I can’t take them with me on the road everywhere. I really feel I would be an irresponsible parent if I didn’t stop my tour and spent time with them.” Madonna on choosing her children over her tour.
