Though waking up in the middle of the night for work might seem like an effort for most people, you will never see Today show cohost Savannah Guthrie complaining about it — on the contrary, she’s counting her blessings!

Savannah just released her new children’s book with coauthor Allison Oppenheim titled Princesses Wear Pants, but as she said to Page Six, she’s still having trouble balancing work and personal life — being a new mother and all.

On her daily routine: “Sometimes I am in balance sometimes I am out of balance. I try really hard — I know my kids and family come first, and when you know that everything else kind of falls into place. I wake up at 3 or 4 a.m. in the morning and I am done by the middle of the day. I play with my kids and put them to bed. As a working mom that is such a blessing.”

“Sometimes I feel like I am lacking in an area and I am not doing a good job. Sometimes I feel that way all the time,” she added, “I feel like every mom feels they wish they could do and be more. But I get out of that rut by remembering that I am pouring everything into my children and they come first.”

She continued about the book: “I was just sitting talking to my friend Allison about how our little girls were in the princess phase and we wondered where did that come from and why are they so into it. But we wanted them to talk about what it means to be a young girl in a leadership role. So the pants are just a way to talk about how to get things done. It is not that we are anti-princess, we just want every young women to be anything she wants to be — especially a girl of substance.”
