Reese Witherspoon Just Shared a Highly-Relatable Parenting Video on Instagram

Reese Witherspoon is a very dedicated mother (so much so that she even set up a backyard summer camp for her kids in the midst of quarantine last summer). But as a parent to three, she also knows the sense of relief that comes when you finally get a little time to yourself.

The Legally Blonde actress captured this feeling in a highly-relatable Instagram video, which she captioned: “That post drop-off feel… #IYKYK [sunglasses emoji].” Check out the clip below.

In the reel, the 45-year-old actress is seen waving to her kid from the driver's seat while saying, “Bye, honey! Have a great day at camp! Okay, make friends!” Then, the star puts on a pair of sunglasses as “Boss B*tch” by Doja Cat begins to play, and she drives away while happily dancing to the song.

The hilarious clip was adored by fellow celebrity moms, like Kerry Washington, who said, “the accuracy,” and Austin Channing Brown, who wrote: “Meeeeeeee.” Meanwhile, singer-songwriter Holly Audrey Williams added on by saying, “Then skipping, lots of skipping upon getting out of the car. LOVE this.”

As we've seen from the actress's previous posts, she juggles a lot of different responsibilities. In addition to being a mother, Witherspoon spends her time filming episodes of The Morning Show, promoting her book club and Draper James clothing line, as well as executive producing a number of movies and television shows through her Hello Sunshine media company.

With all these things on her plate, we can see why she needs a little break every once in a while. Enjoy the downtime, Reese.
