On Wednesday, the country music star and actress, 38, opened up about experiencing "mom guilt" in an honest post shared to Instagram.

"I hope they know this is all for them," Kramer wrote alongside a carousel of videos and photos, which show her on the set of her upcoming Lifetime Christmas movie. "Mom guilt is so real when I'm working, but I pray they see in the end it's all for them," Kramer continued, adding that she loved that "Jolie and her best friend got to make a cameo in this movie!!"

"Thanks @spencerliff for choreographing these cuties. Can't. Wait. For. Y'all. To. See this SPECIAL movie!!!!! @lifetimetv #itsawonderfullifetime," Kramer added.

In addition to photos of Kramer working, the slideshow includes shots of her little Jolie dressed in a holiday dance look on-set and a clip of Jolie getting her hair done in a glam chair. Mario Lopez, who stars in the film alongside Kramer, was also featured in the round-up.

"Okay, the real star is here. Are you going to be in the mommy's movie?" Kramer said to Jolie in one clip, to which her daughter responded excitedly: "Yeah!"

Outside of work and mom life, Kramer is currently enjoying a relationship with boyfriend Ian Schinelli — a single dad and Navy SEAL reserve member.

Still, her focus is her children.

"My focus isn't to hurry up and get married," Kramer told PEOPLE in February. "My focus is my kids and myself and continuing to heal and grow." While Kramer is "happy" right now, she doesn't want to risk "forcing or pushing anything."
