I have to say, Lauren handled this much better than I would have.

After posting this picture on Instagram, a troll commented, "Anyone else notice that Macy is more of a mom to Willa than Lauren is?"

I know, infuriating, right?!

Lauren took the high road when she replied back with, "Oh, I don't notice that.  If you saw it from our personal life instead of through an Instagram feed you may feel differently.  I am definitely Willa Gray's mama.  She LOVES Macy . . . and all of [our] family . . . but Macy is her aunt.  They are so close and it's precious."
