In only 34 seconds, Ashley Gardner was able to fully demonstrate what being a mom is really like.
Gardner, a mother of quadruplets posted the video above on her .
In it, she is desperately trying to have a moment of peace.
"Dad's out shoveling the driveway and mom desperately needed a treat to get through the rest of the night," Gardner says to camera while snacking on a Red Vine. "So I'm hiding in the pantry eating a treat. Is that wrong?"
"They don't ever go away," Gardner continues as her four daughters can be heard just outside the pantry door. "They want everything you have."
Gardner then pans the camera down to the crack at the bottom of the door where one of her daughters faces can be seen.
"See?" asks Gardner. "She's always there."
As if making her point on purpose, her daughter gives a very bright, "Hi!"
The video has struck a cord with viewers. On YouTube it already has over 550,000 views. On the the video has been viewed over 3 million times and has over 100 comments from parents who can relate.
One mom commented, "I have two teenagers and they still wait outside the bathroom door, along with the dog and cats!!"
Another writes, "I hide wherever I can if I need a glass of wine. I mean treat."
Here's hoping every mom gets at least a moment alone in 2017.
