Former Teen Mom star Mackenzie Taylor Douthit (also known as Mackenzie McKee) is counting down the days until her children return home — and her heartfelt Facebook post proves just how much she’s missed them.
In a recent update, Mackenzie revealed that her kids have been spending the summer in Oklahoma — the longest they’ve ever been away from home. “My kiddos come home in 7 days 🥹,” she wrote. “This is the longest they have ever spent in Oklahoma for the summer.” The emotion in her message is clear — part gratitude for their summer with extended family, part longing for their return.
Mackenzie also shared that her younger daughters are excited to reunite with their older siblings, making the homecoming even more special. “Little sisters are ready to meet them and this mama is more than ready to have them home,” she added. The post struck a chord with many parents who understand the bittersweet challenge of co-parenting and shared custody arrangements.
Though she acknowledged that her children were likely having an “amazing summer with cousins and family,” Mackenzie’s words reflect the quiet ache many moms feel when the house gets a little too quiet. Known for being deeply involved in her children’s lives and always striving to balance motherhood, work, and her personal growth, Mackenzie has built a reputation for keeping things real — and this post is no exception.
Fans in the comments flooded the post with supportive messages, many offering encouragement and sharing their own parenting experiences. As someone who has navigated the spotlight while raising a family, Mackenzie continues to be an open book when it comes to the ups and downs of motherhood.
With just days left until her kiddos return, it’s clear this mom is ready for hugs, laughter, and the noise only a full house can bring. One thing is certain: when those doors open in seven days, there’s going to be a whole lot of love waiting at home.
Welcome home countdown officially begins.
