Hi there, good to see you're back. If you place a slice of bread in your brown sugar canister it will keep it from getting hard. I promise you it works❣

[@PEACHFACE24]

I don’t have kids, but I still be wanting to protect my spiritual ears and eyes from the foolishness in the media. It’s wayyyyy too much for kids period. Love that you’re actually active about protecting them from that. Keep up the great work!!!

[@Nursevonivlogs]

Amen

[@sandybeach176]

💯 agree 🙏 ❤

[@Lena_Hill]

So awesome to see how you've built your life and brand over the years from the very beginning and see you so happy. Keep striving for greatness and sharing! Although I don't know you personally, I am extremely proud to see how life has unfolded for you! Onward and upward, Kim! ❤🎉😊

[@ImDay]

I absolutely love seeing you open up in your authentic way. I love your channel ❤. The twins are soooo cute 😍😍😍

[@khinkskhoils7647]

Fellow introvert here. Recharging is a must after socializing. Your twins are adorable! Tfs Kim.

[@nicoletuck9283]

HON-TY don't waste that precious hour talking to us, live yo KID-FREE life NOW 🦸🏽‍♀️💃🏽🤸🏽‍♀️🤸🏽‍♀️🤸🏽‍♀️

[@bromistadavis8556]

The dancing because you have the house to yourself is SOOO real 🤣. Yesterday my husband had a play date with his brother and he took the children. They were gone for well over 3 hours and I had so much fun with it being silent 😂

[@ladyt3182]

That’s an awesome feeling, and I experience this even more now that we only have our 19 year old twins at home! Our 33, 30, and 28 year old have all moved out , but we love when they visit!

[@imperfection_beauty215]

Story of my life. I’m so outkasted naturally that I can’t stand even being around people anyway.

[@virgochild4216]

Draining 😮

[@teliabattle1160]

Yes of course I don't need any people in my life for now maybe some other time especially my trustworthy people especially spiritual people & half of my spiritual family members!

[@MaryAliceWise]

I seconded that.

[@Freyaet]

Look into highly sensitive people other’s energy can be draining

[@deeTheG8T]

Meeeeee😅

[@autumncolors1673]

I have stories and characters in my head that I started when I was in elementary school. Decades have passed and they're still with me. Instead of reading, sometimes I'll close my eyes and "write" another chapter of their story in my head. I can do that for hours. Literally creating my own movie in real time. Its my favorite activity in the world ❤

[@taylorallen2518]

Literally same! I always wondered if this was only me who did this lol

[@eLextricFeel]

wow that is actually a phenomenal thing to do. i am intrigued!

[@celestedean5827]

You are a phenomenal mother and wife period Kim!!!!! I just had to say that I love that for black women because we don’t tell each other enough or give flowers where they are due!!!!🌹🌹💐

[@vee.caprie]

You’re far from boring! Much like myself…I agree the music now is outrageous. Keep protecting the babies love that! You’re pretty dope❤

[@jlee04]

Hey Kim! I don't normally comment but this time I had to! I'm so glad to know that parents like us still exist. I REFUSE to listen to the radio or anything it projects because these "songs" are outrageous!!! I agree with everything you said. I literally only listen to jazz and gospel music when my kids are with me too!

[@juelclyne7392]

Kim, girl even someone without kids, I love having my house to myself 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿. Enjoy every moment when you can ❤

[@nederahpollack]

I can't believe how long I've been watching your channel. 11 years I'm glad you're still here & have such a beautiful life.. ❤

[@tiffanymosleynixon8291]

It’s the dancing at the beginning for me…made me smile because I can relate 🤣🤣🤣

[@msbarbados68]

I am in favour for a sleep training video, not for me, that phase of my life is over but I am sure lots of new mothers and upcoming mothers could benefit from it! Side note: I will watch anything you post!

[@ThatsBoujee]

😂 I feel you! I listen to jazz in the car too because it’s so calm and relaxing, and I definitely don’t play crazy music around my kids. They won’t be the cool kids singing every word of the popular music at family gatherings but oh well!

[@its_MAK_]

Kinzo did not want to be bothered with us. He said he was enjoying the silence as well. So happy for you 🥰

[@radchik]

0:32 "The Brown Throw Blanket Ghost". I can't with you, Kim. Too funny! 😭😭😭 (and yes, the sounds of silence can be pure bliss!)

[@thechicnatural]

I have no chill 😂

[@BiancaMH]

I laughed at that too! LOL!!!!!!!!

[@La-zu7qy]

I laughed every time I watched that part…….😂 😂😂

[@shaylw30]

You showed the twins..so adorable!! Yay. I have fraternal twin grandsons. They are 2 years and busy lol.

[@deirdrethompson4508]

I totally agree with “ME TIME “😌 I am a joy to be around if I’m happy within.

[@shecoop6633]

Kenzo enjoying the silence too lol

[@FireSign0731]

Thx for sharing about being an introvert. I was telling my youngest kid last week how much fun I have by myself, doing the robot in the car, singing, laughing randomly because I finally enjoy my own company versus when I was younger. I enjoy people too but feel the need to balance a lot more often now that I’m almost 60. I need to retreat and recharge more now. Can’t explain it - you have to live it but it’s a beautiful thing. I can never get away from me so I’m thankful to love and enjoy me. Thx Kim. 😻❤️

[@marquitahammock6603]

Yes, I appreciate the silence when I have time away from kids. It is not very often at all. The silence is golden!!

[@ROCKHET]

Hi! your music selection isn't boring its pure self care/ self love to program yourself with high frequency instead of mainstream which is distructively low. keep up the positivity. beautiful family you have

[@khinkskhoils7647]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@TheOnly_Samontra]

Absolutely 💯

[@cherh]

Girl, this is ME! Pure introvert! I love it! Car concerts be so epic! I was on vacation last weekend. This weekend, I need a minute! 😩 I'm staying in regrouping 😂

[@shesonfire_]

One of the reasons your son is so smart is because you protect his mind from foolishness. He speaks so well to be so young and the fact that he’s writing in Japanese is amazing. ❤

[@ladyt3182]

Thanks for showing us your beautiful baby boys, they look like their big brother!!! Our twin daughters are 19 now, time flies!!! Even though your sons are fraternal, they look identical!! So precious!!

[@Amber.Jackson91]

A couple things... 1. I just love seeing people be themselves as an introvert when you have your home to yaself 😂😂. It's truly the best time ever!! 2. Uhhhh Kim, can we have deets on this curly hair tho?!! It's so freaking pretty 😍 3. The twinsssss omg they're so adorable!!! 4. You are NOT boring at all, when I say I LOVEEEE jazz real bad! It helps me get through my work days. Jazz + Fall = my happy place 😁 and the making up the scenarios is soooo me girl omg!!

[@tomot4975]

I’m Japanese and I’m super excited to see Hiragana! Omg his writing s super good!!

[@PhinaLuv]

Omg your son is a genius 5 years old and writing in Japanese amazing!!!!

[@NYCAppl3]

I have twin girls, and I definitely understand! God bless the day they finally slept straight through the night! Your happiness is infectious 😊❤

[@justreesejustsaying]

One time for the introverts. Yessssss!!!!!!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I totally get it and the made-up scenarios, too.😊

[@user-ck6ch8mv4b]

Thank you Kim for the water filtration recommendation. With all of the chemicals in our water especially "forever chemicals" it's important and I've been searching for something. ❤

[@suchaslifewkimmie7343]

OMG, I feel the same way.. I love my own company, jammin to what I want to listen to and vibin out.. and I don't know if it's age or my introverted side but my social battery depletes after a couple hours, I like being at home and chillin.. I like how your vlogs do not feel superficial, I appreciate your authenticity.. keep shining gurl 💫🤩

[@ladyt3182]

I’m the same way Kim , I have never had any best friends. Although I’m an extravert according to my family. I do enjoy talking to associates and family, but I have been disappointed by so called friends, so I’m okay enjoying my family and my alone time!

[@BuCuInspo]

The babies look JUST like you!😍🥰

[@jasminedevone]

One time for the introverted people! Cause I felt every bit of what you said and did while you were in the car with the fries! 😂 Introverted life is it. I need to recharge multiple times in between hanging out.

[@aprilmayjune1579]

Love the Watercolors station and Dr 🎷 , smooth jazz is my go to genre. Introverts need that alone time 💯

[@mizkk93]

I’m the same way, I love my me time!! Like you said just wanting to do what you want even if it’s nothing. And the twins are too cute!! ☺️

[@alwaysontime565]

I started my toddler at one in her own room. Her bedtime was 6:30 pm and slept until 6:30/7am. Everyone was so surprised!

[@CB-gk4lb]

Kenzo said I need my hour break too, leave me alone!!! Definitely understand that mental need for silence and alone time. For sure would love to see your sleep training steps.

[@TheKady113]

Kim you're so fun! It's been a joy catching up on your last few videos. Fellow introvert and jazz lover here and I really admire how you put yourself together and bring us along for the ride...😊❤️

[@TheExWife]

Kim? I needed this video today. Hey! Hey! Hey! I love seeing the twins. So adorable.🥰

[@alexisrenee_86]

Thanks for sharing the twins, they are so cute! I’m a true introvert and love my own company too!

[@dominique2o06]

The water filtration looks like a good investment I'll look into it. すごい! His handwriting in Japanese is so pretty 😍 Your pastries look delicious! おいしそお😋 My Japanese is kinda subpar because I keep taking breaks learning 🤷🏾‍♀️ The Twins energies are so different and you can tell them apart already they are so big now & adorable! Loved the grilling session you shared because I love grilling I might do some today.

[@danihort]

Absolutely love your vlogs! ❤

[@thechicnatural]

Thanks so much Dani 😊

[@danihort]

@@thechicnatural You're welcome! Thanks for sharing your experiences with us. It's very inspiring. ☺

[@zinavanlandingham5753]

I hear you about being an introvert! The older I get, the worse it gets. That’s why church is so hard now… I really enjoy your videos! You are absolutely precious! Blessings & Hugs!🧡🌻

[@MoiWonder]

7 kids and yes! I'm doing cartwheels, eating all my favs with complete satisfaction, since I don't have to share. Yes, it's a special treat. {silence} 🙌🏽 Totally agree with a good rainy day and introvert life. I grew up in a big family and always had to get away. It's too much, I hear everything and feel everything so I just can't. Great vlog

[@Nesha2799]

Sleep training my twins was the best thing I could do!! I started dream feeding at 3 months. They are so cute 😍😍😍

[@its_all_in_the_feeling8448]

Chile now I see why they call ya'll influencers, I went from looking up the water filtration, to the chai tea and then I went looking for Jazz music. girl lol

[@missanika16]

I bought the aquasana before I finished the video. I love your recommendations 😍

[@august8158]

You in the car during the rainstorm...I'm crying 🤣🤣 cuz it is soooo me!!🤣🤣 I used to call myself an introvert, but I recently discovered I just really enjoy my solitude. The recharge tho, once I do go out, is so real and SOOO necessary. Neeeed that! Love your content ❤

[@godsprecious6884]

Loved this vlog!!! The intro was hilarious 😂😂😂😂

[@ArtofKy]

Love this video❤The need to recharge your energy multiple times in between socializing it so real.

[@myrnaj4502]

Love the vlog. I would definitely like a video on how you sleep train the twins.

[@theresawilks9426]

I love this video and I like that laid back riding music you shared you wasn't even boring❤ Your babies are absolutely beautiful and they look just like you especially the one that was the most vocal, thank you for sharing them with us and see you in the next video 😊

[@brendaschenk9390]

I love being with myself ❤Totally get it!!

[@Sharry_Blossom]

I am thoroughly enjoying you enjoying your life! The joy is shining!!! ☀️ Thank you for sharing your joy! It made me smile! 🌸🍃🌼🍃🌺🍃

[@TellysLens]

Yes! I first found your content about a decade ago because of your makeup routines. Your approach in each video was very easy to follow, and I promise I recently thought of your channel and wondered if you would do any updated makeup routines. I’ll be allllllll over them whenever you upload! 🤎 And also a fellow introvert here! 😉

[@missv7689]

It’s truly a blessing to have such a good and peaceful life. Your motherhood, finances, marriage all look so peaceful. That’s truly a blessing

[@reservechicbaby]

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being an introvert. In honesty, most people are introverts and they know it. Some may try and come off like their not, just to want people to think otherwise, because they are stuck on wanting to have this perfect looking looking, but, like I tell anyone, no one has a perfect life. No 2 people are 100% the same. Embrace all of the things that makes you unique and special, and bask in the glory of that. I like going out and enjoying myself away from home, but I also enjoy the comforts of being at home too. The only thing that I say is never good for ones, mind, body and spirit is to engage in isolation. Because, when you isolate yourself from the world as much as you can, there’s a deep underlying issue or issues that you must seek to resolve and conquer, in order to live a more balanced, life overall. Because, the world itself is not a bad place and neither are most people in it. To have an optimistic view of life, and never a pessimistic one instead. It will make a world of difference towards one’s overall mental well-being and sense of happiness in the best of ways for sure. Keep standing strong. Keep staying positive. Keep loving you. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@ladyt3182]

Welcome Back Kim! I figured you wouldn’t be doing to many KZbin videos, I have twins plus 3 other kids. Family can keep you pretty busy!! I know you don’t plan on showing your kids often, but can you please share some updated pictures of your boys with us?

[@bthomas457]

I became interested in Japanese at an early age and I had the opportunity to take Japanese class in high school and I loved it! Also, I totally agree with you on the introvert things 😊 I am the same way.

[@justdiamond8768]

Yes could you please do a video of sleep training. My good friend just has twin boys a week ago and she also has a 5 year old. I believe it would help her out a lot!

[@donitapolk9413]

You came to Long Beach? My hometown, you were along Shoreline Drive in Shoreline Village. I have very fond memories of spending Sundays with my Mom in Shoreline Village going shop to shop and enjoying coffee, ice cream, lunch at Parker's Lighthouse or Tequila Jack's. I don't believe the Merry-Go-Round is still there but that would have been fun for your babies. Yeah, Long Beach has quite a few "areas" within that have a whole different vibe. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. Can't wait for the backyard reveal; I'm fine either way with showing the sleep training or not ... my youngest offspring will be graduating high school in 2025!🎉

[@cbuck3173]

Been following you since your shifting days!!! Love that you've been part of my evolution so yes. More mom videos please!!!!!

[@auntiem71]

Love your channel. My twins are in their 20’s and 30’s they go to sleep the same time from being babies. lol. My knee baby was 9 months before sleeping through the night. Stay encouraged.

[@adrianwillis66]

Good not the only one loving cook shows. Master chef. The show with the surprise ingredients. House Hunters ❤ those shows. Can really relate to everything in this video.

Good morning! So glad to hear you enjoyed Long Beach, CA. That's my hometown! ❤❤❤ And yes, we LOOOOVVVVEEEE Snoop but Long Beach has a lot more to offer than just him. 😊

Welcome to Cali/LA.Yes the LBC is beautiful. Back in the 90's and early 2000's my friend would fly into LBC Airport and I would visit during the day (even take off work 😂). Sometimes they would have several vendors out there like a flea/Farmers Market. Now, you got me wanting to take another visit since it's been awhile.

Totally (fun) random fact. The oil Five Guys uses is peanut oil and a lot of other fast food joints don’t. I wonder if the vegan diet has anything to do with that too. Fellow introvert here!
