“It has been the most challenging thing,” Kim said about parenting, adding that it also was “the thing that has taught me the most about myself.”

She continued, saying, “There are nights I cry myself to sleep. Like, holy shit, this f-cking tornado in my house. Like, what just happened?”

“You know, with all the moods and the personalities and sometimes they’re fighting, and you know, there’s no one there,” she said, according to People. “Like, it’s [just] me to play good police officer and bad cop.”

Despite saying that the experience was “full madness,” she went on to describe it as “the best chaos.”

“It’s like I always have to do one of my daughter’s hair — and it has to be perfect and it has to be a certain way — and then this one needs me to put his shoes on and they all need you. … It’s like full crazy madness, cooking, running around. Like, it’s wild,” she added.

By the sounds of it, she wouldn’t change it for the world, though. If anything, she referenced how fast the time has gone with her children, saying, “Everyone says the days are long and the years are short, and that couldn’t be like a more true statement.”

This week Kim also provided an update on her journey to become a lawyer.
