Mother has a shop.

She looks after her shop, her customers, her suppliers, and her family.

She says she really misses our father when he travels!

Her phone rings almost non-stop.

Customers call to ask prices, and to place their orders.

They call to trace their orders, and to complain about their orders.

We often go to her shop in the afternoons.

We tell her about school.

But our conversations are always interrupted by customers eager for her attention.

We have fun with children who come to the shop with their parents.

Sometimes, mother has to serve as referee as well as help customers.

I think that she has super powers!

When we become too noisy, mother says, "Now sit quietly and watch TV."

She always adds, "But only for 30 minutes, while we take a break!"

If we don't have schoolwork, sometimes mother asks me or my older sister to help her.

I am not always ready to help.

But I do it because I know she works so hard.

As we walk home from the shop with the sun setting, we talk about our day.

We have to hurry to keep up with her, but we love walking and talking with mother.

She makes sure that we do homework, and have time to play.

She makes sure that we eat vegetables and fruits, and drink water.

When we are sick, she cares for us.

At night, mother continues to work at home.

There is always work from the shop.

Sometimes she falls asleep at the table!

Father makes sure that mother has time to relax, and he helps around the house.

"You're a Super Mummy!" he says.

"And you're my Super Super!" smiles mother.
