"So, let me explain. Just because I want you, for all the moms, who support moms, the real moms anyway. But this sh*t ain't no joke. You all have no idea the running around it takes and some of the things we do just to make sure that your kids are straight," said Govan.

She continued, "It's almost 2 A.M. East Coast time. And when I tell you, I've been running. I still got pickups at the airport, drop offs and everything else you could imagine. But yeah, man, when you all see moms doing their thing, not that I want a pat on my back, but for those who deserve a pat on their back, give it to them. It's needed. Some of us don't want a da*n cape, we want a nap. So be easy on the moms, the real ones."
