**NEW YORK, NY** – Actress Olivia Munn is embracing the whirlwind of raising two young children, seven-month-old daughter Méi and three-year-old son Malcolm, with husband John Mulaney. Ahead of Mother’s Day, Munn shared humorous glimpses into her family life on social media, including a video of Malcolm throwing a tantrum while she proudly displayed his Mother’s Day card and questionnaire, on which he declared her 24 years old (20 years younger than her actual age).

Munn, known for her roles in *Your Friends & Neighbors* and *Iron Man 2*, described her parenting style as less strict, likening herself to Robin Williams’ character in *Mrs. Doubtfire* during an appearance on *The Kelly Clarkson Show*. She admitted to finding humor in her son’s antics, even when they involve knocking flowers off tables, while Mulaney takes a more disciplinary approach.

Munn also opened up about the challenges of juggling motherhood with her career, recalling an emotional breakdown during a family trip to New York. The overwhelming experience of managing two children while Mulaney worked on Broadway led to a tearful moment, but ultimately solidified her appreciation for her busy, albeit chaotic, life. Speaking on *Today with Jenna and Friends*, Munn described the experience of having two children as “insane,” likening it to “landing on Mars.” Despite the challenges, she emphasized the overwhelming joy and fun that comes with being a mother.
