My oldest threw a fit while walking to school

So we woke up late trying to get to school on time before 7:55 and my 6-year-old keeps falling back to sleep after I woke her up like three times as I watch the time ticking away now it 7:40 she sleepy trying to put her sock on zoning in and out of sleepiness and I’m over here trying to move things along so we can get out in time before 7:45 it takes us 12 min to walk to her school so she got dressed and before we head out the front door she muttered “mom I’m tired” I reply “ We kept telling you to go back to bed, this is what happens when you stay up late”. Then I freaking saw that her face is dirty her food around her mouth and I’m like let me get it she like no so we were halfway to her school.

that food around my daughter's mouth is bothering me. and I was trying to get her to get it, and she was like moaning she got most of it off. but there was this spec still staring at me. I hate taking my child to school looking dirty especially her face. So we stop for a moment i’d lick the sleeve of my cardigan sweater to get the rest of it. she pull away flapping her arms like she about too fly away from me. she like mooooommmm!!, ugh🙄. I’m thinking these people in these cars passing us is probably thinking I’m hurting her because how she acting as she keeps pulling away. but I finally got it irks me every time I look at my beautiful daughter face and I see her face is dirty but, we made it in time before 7:55.

Have any moms went thru this ?and was paranoid about how other people will perceive the worst out of the situation? Like how I thought those drivers thought it looks like I was hurting her because how she kept pulling away from me so I won’t wipe her mouth clean. Like I know i have nothing to worry about but other people can insert themselves in your life and cause shit with ur family because they read the situation wrong.

Being a mom, you get that unwanted thought about how people think about you. whenever, you are at the store and your kid is throwing a fit or on the way to school. pulling away from u in front of people then, you are catching the way these people are looking at you now you feeling slightly embarrassed. She in kindergarten and she not a morning person. and I get the reason she didn’t want me to wipe her mouth. she gets gross-out when I tried use my spit to clean her face. It was exactly how I was with my mom.
