59-year-old superstar Madonna is sharing a bit of her private life on the cover of People Magazine with four of her kids – David, 11, Mercy, 11, and 5-year-old twins Estere and Stella, who were all adopted.

Read excerpts:

Why are you all s—-ing on me right now?’ I did everything by the book. That was a real low point for me. I would cry myself to sleep.

On life after adopting Estere and Stella: It’s like they’ve always been here.
