<h3 style="text-align: center;">Mariah Speaks Fondly Of Her 12-Year-Old Twins: &#8220;They&#8217;re Kind-Hearted People&#8221;</h3>
<p>The songstress shared her commentary during a meet-up with <a href="https://people.com/mariah-carey-reacts-to-her-twins-almost-being-teenagers-exclusive-8361839" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PEOPLE</a>, and she got it poppin&#8217; by suggesting she didn&#8217;t want them to &#8220;rush&#8221; or grow up too fast.</p>
<p>Nonetheless, the proud momma says that getting to watch her tweens mature is &#8220;actually really beautiful.&#8221;</p>
<p>She didn&#8217;t stop there, as she also gave Moroccan and Monroe a shoutout for being &#8220;good, nice kids.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote>
<p id="mntl-sc-block_1-0-15" class="comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html">&#8220;They&#8217;re kind-hearted people, and I really enjoy being around them and watching them grow up into the people that they&#8217;re ultimately going to become.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>
<p>As far as what her preteen children are currently into, Mariah says they&#8217;re both on their sports grind.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;They&#8217;re into activities like physical sports and stuff like that, which I was hoping they would be, because when they were little, I had them doing that. Then, when it was COVID, they really couldn&#8217;t go anywhere and do anything. So now they&#8217;re both really enjoying activities and sports and all of that.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Looking ahead at the upcoming holiday season, the <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/sorry-mimi-mariah-carey-loses-trademark-battle-over-queen-of-christmas-title/?_gl=1*n4xon*_up*MQ..*_ga*ODU0NzQ1MjMyLjE2OTc2NTEwNTk.*_ga_V2HX8YP3XL*MTY5NzY1MzUzNC4yLjAuMTY5NzY1MzUzNC4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noopener">self-proclaimed &#8220;Queen of Christmas&#8221;</a> also declared, <strong><em>&#8220;What I want for my kids for Christmas is to just enjoy themselves, be happy, enjoy being with family, and feel loved.&#8221;</em></strong></p>
