Being a parent is hard sometimes, you hear people say it is the hardest job you can have. I don’t view it as a job, but have had my share of tough times. Although luckily they are balanced with the wonderful joy, that having a child in your life brings. There is a pressure on parents, especially the stay at home parents to be a jack of all trades; looking after the children and perhaps trying to help support the family too.
We were recently challenged by Interflora to take part in the Priceless Mum Challenge and create a couple of videos. To share our children’s thoughts on what makes a Supermum and to show what we think are the most rewarding aspects of motherhood are. Obviously, Baby is not yet very eloquent and so she will have to show you, rather than tell you.
Now it is my turn to show you what I love about being a mummy.
What do you think makes a Supermum? What do you love most about being a mum (or Dad!)?
Disclosure: This is our entry to the Interflora Priceless Mum Challenge. We were given a LexiBook Video camera to help us make the video.

Thank you my darling. It was really good fun xx
I love your vIdeas, they are fantastic! I love being a mum and wouldn’t change it for the world but it is such a hard job, especially as they get older and you have to reason with them and have more challenging days! No one can measure how rewarding being a parent is though, those cuddles and the love that it brings. Seeing your children grow is so lovely. Great post. #sundaystars

Thank you huni. You should, ever time I do one I really love it xx
This is so beautiful.
At one point in my life I never believed that I would get the chance to become a mother, so for me just being a mum is the best thing ever. As for being a Supermum, I think all mothers question whether they are doing a good job, but if my girls think I am a Supermum, that would be the best possible reward.
