Don't ever change, people like you are rare, positive, smiling, loving. I admire you.

[@itrytovegan-7266]

I'm 19 and no where near the stage in my life where I feel ready to have kids, but when i watch your channel i know this is what i want in my future, your videos always make me smile and look forward to the future

[@jaxtondax785]

A trick : watch movies on kaldroStream. Been using it for watching all kinds of movies these days.

[@yusufeaston8541]

@Jaxton Dax Yea, been watching on kaldroStream for years myself :D

[@jaydenarcher3674]

@Jaxton Dax definitely, been watching on Kaldrostream for months myself =)

[@legendmitchell3040]

@Jaxton Dax yea, been watching on Kaldrostream for months myself =)

[@kelsd161]

Regarding the comment that your channel grows due to luck: I was comparing statistics awhile ago of different channels and their views per day, and the views on your videos that you get are higher than other channels I was looking at that have similar content but a million subscribers. And the reason those other channels were getting loads of subscribers was because they do a lot of giveaways which incentivize people to follow them, but the subscribers that they get aren't loyal and they don't get them (for the most part) because people are genuinely interested in their channel. So their views are quite low because their followers don't actually watch their videos. Your views/likes are quite high because the subscribers that you have are loyal and follow you just because they love you! So whoever said that's luck obviously didn't know what they were talking about!

[@angierose623]

Your channel has grown because you are an inspiration to all women and mommas! It wasn’t luck that brought me to your channel. It was your encouragement and strength during pregnancy, labor, and now motherhood. Thank you for all your hard work to make our lives brighter.

[@Heelsandholster]

It isn't easy to make videos. I know all the work you've done and appreciate it. Thank you for having a positive, helpful channel!

[@brigiddemoor4206]

You are CRUSHING IT!! You produce such high quality content every single video provides value. You are a gift and your Channel enhances KZbin as a whole! Thank you for your dedication and for how you place your passion at the service of others! Keep it up!

[@Heelsandholster]

@@brigiddemoor4206 I couldn't agree more Brigid.

[@jennyangelle]

Brigid DeMoor THIS says it so perfectly!!! AGREE!!! I’m in awe of her🌸

[@hannahriley5254]

Please Em, don't give into pressure to change anything about your channel. It has always been so personable, so sincere, helpful and humble. Nothing flashy, or greedy. Just you guys. We love everything about it and its the highlight of my Monday, Tuesday and Friday for sure. ♥️♥️♥️

[@sarahlerego7279]

Your channel has grown because you and your family are so likeable! Love you videos xxx

[@eilidhcampbell7894]

I know it's easier said than done Emily, but you've got to slingshot those negative comments right out of your mind because they dont belong in your head space. I along with countless others find you so inspirational and I can't even begin to tell you how much you've helped me get into a good head space of my own You've honestly helped me in so many different ways since I found your channel and I love your videos. All the very best to you all xx

[@natalieg7342]

Can’t tell you how much I love your videos! Honestly, all your tips and hacks and just general mum life bits have made motherhood that little easier for me! I was having lunch with another mum yesterday and I said I had bought a bath mat for my son on the recommendation of a youtuber and she was like “was it Emily Norris coz omg I love her too!” Xx

[@heidihinter4961]

YAY for co-sleeping! It's the best! Let's soak up the cuddles while we can!

[@anaisabelmunguia7285]

You make it look so easy because you are so good at this. Being able to overcome those obstacles is what makes you a pro at this!

[@nikhiladeshpande6123]

Hardwork really pays off And i can already see that You are doing an amazing job!!!!!emily Keep going👍

[@rebeccahunt1471]

I think anyone who has watched your videos for a while, will know that it's not luck at all and that you work so so hard! I don't know of any other KZbinr who is so dedicated to their fans. I still get all star struck when you reply to my comments 🤩

[@ashleyscout4848]

I'm nearly two months into being a new mama and watching your videos has made me so much more confident! I started watching when I was pregnant and feeling a bit lost but I've come to realize how much having a sense of humor about it all helps. You are great at what you do :)

[@semsem185]

I feel like Matt should launch his own fashion line too. He is so fashionable!

[@s.b9118]

Or his own barber line?? Tbat would be cool

[@awarcholphoto]

Omg you don't even know how much you helped me with literary everything...from weaning my baby, cleaning and organising my house and putting routine in place. I'm so grateful I came across your channel! Must say I'm a bit of an addict now ;) don't stop please. THANK YOU!

[@cschaefe37]

Your channel is helping me right now just relax, I'm currently getting my 5 month old to nap better on his own and just need 10 mins to myself and you are my escape and break for a little bit. I dont know why but because you're so nice and relatable, and as a new mom its helpful to see that like when I think I'm failing, it's all just normal things that happen and life goes on. To me basically its refreshing to see that someone else can do it and with 3 children total. Though I dont know HOW you do it. Caleb is precious by the way what a little love bug. Cheers Emily keep on keeping on girl

[@megan33-ann]

Can we all take a moment to say ...... The way you wrapped them presants were PERFECT!!!!! OMG I COULD WATCH YOU WRAP GIFTS ALL DAY LONG LOL

[@CormacksGirl]

Jewellery, did you say jewellery? I'm getting excited! Think Jackson is saying badges!

[@bleeknee28]

My goodness, you are just the sweetest parents!!

[@arielleleisman4857]

Never change, Emily! I don’t know where I would be without you!

[@eril7292]

Emily being so proud about the ball wrapping lol 😂 it did look great girl I was impressed too

[@heyitsAprille]

Omg! I completely agree! Having a yt channel and keeping it takes a LOOOOOT of hardwork and TIME!! You’re an amazing person Emily! I love watching u when i have time! Your kids are so adorable and the positivity on your videos are just so inspiring! 😍

[@traclittle3787]

Your channel is perfect the way it is! I love watching you and your family!- especially seeing how you balance life with boys.. their sweetness, liveliness, and busyness.. I relate so much! ❤

[@MsStar1983]

That thumbnail is EVERYTHING!!!!! So adorable.

[@mary-jaythijsen6304]

Emily, you and your family have such a special place in my heart. I honestly kind of get teary eyed when I think of it because I just feel like you have so much love to give and you/the videos have helped me through hard times especially being a single mum of my 11 month old. Your videos were always a way for me to unwind and I love seeing you and your family be happy ❤ you are such a rolemodel for me! I don't know you, but I love you so much! Thank you for making these videos. Do not listen to those negative people that say your channel grew out of luck! They are just jealous

[@alleycat8270]

Anybody who says it's just luck, they are so painfully jealous, their grandmother can feel it! You are so graceful and so dedicated to your family, what's wrong with that? Love you and your family💜

[@BiomedbyAnna]

You’re the only youtuber who’s videos I watch till the end and I can watch you everyday. Honestly! And i watch alot of youtubers. So keep doing what you do I love everything about you and your channel. Thankyou for being so consistent with uploading and giving soo many ideas and hacks!

[@AngieLowis]

Always love your videos! Dont be afraid to talk about the behind the scenes, i loveee to listen to it. You are the one that inspired me to make my mommy youtube channel but with an active toddler sometimes i am having a hard to edit the videos. I usually edit until 1-2 am. I always wonder how u can do it because someday i am just so tired during my son’s nap time and bedtime and i just want to sleep in. But u always make me going because you always being so consistent uploading your videos! Xoxo, angie❤️❤️❤️

[@simplyprim]

Emily, you are an amazing person! I was you once with 4 small children. You are so right that one day you will have time to do work so enjoy your children now because you will blink and they will be grown! Life is too short to worry about how someone else perceives your life. The only luck involved in any of your videos is that we are lucky to be able to experience your radiant personality, positivity and happiness😘

[@Crg853]

First like and view who else loves her voice❤️❤️❤️❤️💖💖💖😝

[@beyoutifullynatural9451]

Me! I love her voice! It makes me so happy! Lol

[@abcmoonsweeti5234]

I greatly appreciate all the hard work that you put into your videos. You provide so much inspiration. You have been a positive influence in so many areas of my day to day life - from meal ideas and motivating me to clean the house to introducing my toddler to cheese toast and magna-tiles. She loves cheese toast! Thank you for all that you do!

[@carriejackson]

I love your channel and how much you appreciate your viewers, you are a such a lovely person you deserve all your success xx

[@kathigarnier2982]

Dear Emily, I love your vlogs. Thanks to you I put on makeup every day and I find cleaning our house less frustrating. I can imagine how much work a vlog means. I tried once by myself. So far I did only one video because I really don't know if I want to continue. I feel not confident enough, having so many excuses in mind...(I am too old, too fat, too boring...) . I just think nobody wants to hear what I have to show, to tell. I am so full of admiration for your positive attitude! ♥️😘

[@Heelsandholster]

Caleb is the star of the show!

[@emmasmith3428]

Hey Emily! I'm a relatively new follower all the way from New Zealand, and you have become the person I MOST look forward to when you have uploaded! You and your family are so lovely to watch & makes me so excited to have kids of my own one day. I love your "normal every day" vlogs when you do just day to day things with the kids & show your life! Thank you so much for your videos! Emma :) Xx

[@display_name2121]

You have great insight. Loved hearing about it. I love the wrapping paper you used for Fraser's birthday gifts, too!

[@highnotes10]

Diligence is the mother of good luck. You made your luck. Love that you are honest about co-sleeping. Our son is in our bed at midnight almost every night. You help me feel a bit more normal for that. Thank to for being here!

[@lottiejames4414]

Wow. ! I know we only see a few moments of your day but I have never seen anyone so dedicated to their family and loving. In this generation I thought I wouldn’t want kids because this world can be so cruel but you and your family opened my eyes to show how amazing it can be ! ❤️

[@monakeulen5622]

Thanks for this vid! My 9 month old takes forever to eat her meal, she gets destracted all the time. But watching Jackson makes her focus on 1 this and I can finally feed her and move on. She loves watching the boys! She was fixed on Caleb in the bed and wrapping the colourful presents :)

[@myhair0]

Your channel is definitely helpful and positive and the effort that you put into it is evident. Your hard work and passion is why your channel has grown.. not luck 😉

[@pryscylla_horn]

There is no luck in creating success, it's SO MUCH HARD WORK!!! As YT has become such a big part of your life and your 'job' it's something you feel so comfortable and confident doing it almost feels like no effort to some but definitely no luck ❤️

[@gingerelf24]

How easy and offhand for someone to just dismiss the growth of your channel as being down to luck - but you have created your own "good luck" through your hard work. Someone who just sits on their ass the whole day won't have good luck knocking on their door! Keep up the good work Emily!

[@jaynecrouch9308]

I stumbled across your video when I was having a lonely day at home with my newborn and finding breastfeeding really hard work. I had no idea there was such a thing as vloggers and was expecting to find clinical videos on breastfeeding advice that might help me continue with it, but your video was so positive and happy and I spent the rest of the day watching you! It totally changed my mood and I breastfed until my girl was 22 months so I am so pleased I found you...even if I do spend too much time watching mummy vloggers now! 😂😂😍😍 xx

[@catalinafuster1251]

You are my inspiration. I want to be a mother like you. I'm a first time mom and your channel gives me hope every time. I'm grateful for all the great work you put on your videos. Thanks Emily.

[@sankey1988]

All your hard work pays off Emily. Love love love your channel 💕

[@foxxyproxxy]

Oh my gosh, I don't know how you do it all! I tried making some videos for one week and said screw this! I don't have the energy! Your videos are always so heart felt, beautiful, and inspiring. All your hard work shows and I am so grateful. :)

[@agnesaasmäe]

Hi Emily! I wanted to tell you that I love your videos! Some time I have hard time to watch all the content that I´m following in KZbin because a lot of the videos are too long. Your videos are around 10 minutes and I feel like I get a lot of variety in them in that time and thats why I love them so much. Also the content of your videos is different in time to time so I don´t get bored (what some times can happen if I watch the same content over and over again) :) Keep up the good work and happy holidays!

[@ButacuPpucatuB]

Emily, I understand what you mean about your channel being a place of passion. I love that you post often about the struggles and triumphs of motherhood and family life. If it helps, make a shorter video for your vlogmas series. I hope that this helps in some way. I know that there is a lot that goes on behind the scenes. I can sympathise as it’s difficult when you are basically a one man band show. Bravo to you for doing all that is required in being a wife, mum, and KZbinr. Happy birthday Frazier!!!!

[@kate9047]

Hi Emily. Fellow Essex girl here! I totally agree with nap time being the golden hour! My son is 13 months and when he naps I rush around like a mad women trying to clean up and do other jobs! And when he’s in bed at night I love to sit down and watch your videos x

[@lolamoore8181]

You have helped my family and I sooo much!, Keep doing what you're doing xoxo All hard work, no luck here. Thanks for having a positive, helpful, fun channel!

[@angelao6047]

1:03 - love it! The mommy's face and the boy's noise. My daily life! Haha, bohoo...

[@beardefelice3557]

My daughter hates the car if it isn’t moving. When we are stuck in traffic its ear peircing screams 🤣

[@joannamarie5085]

Cheerful Emily your channel is perfect! Thank you for chosing to share it with us. 💛💛💛

[@joansterrr]

Love your videos and all the effort you put into them! Thank you for always being positive and inspirational!

[@gossip142]

Caleb looks so much like his father :) all your boys are gorgeous xx

[@shakz_9118]

1st time i stumbled on one of your videos was the "whats in my hospital bag", at the time i was having my 1st baby (2016) and that video helped me so much!!!! Ever since iv bin watching you and i love all the contents you post, really motivation to watch!

[@minarabegum7710]

Omg my heart can't handle how cute Jackson is!!!!!!

[@missh5259]

Your channel has grown due to hard work! I love your content so helpful and inspirational. Well done mama x

[@alexaverona4529]

Dont you worry about those comments, ive been trying to find videos to try and motivate me to be a organised mum and clean my house everyday but i was very sad all the time thinking it was me on this planet that had to do those stuff but i was very wrong you showed me on your channel that you can be organised and clean and happy and enjoy life non of the other cleaning videos i watched motivated me ,overall you are an angel sent from heaven keep doing what your doing god bless you and your family

[@thelinnanes]

Hi Emily you have no idea how much I appreciate you and you videos, Being a mum is a really hard job and you make it look so easy!!! As I have 4 children I also have no friends but watching your videos makes me feel like I have you as a friend thanks so so much!! Can not wait to see the jewelry!!!xxx

[@justcallmejen2]

I love that you used your wrapping hack there :P Used it myself this week so thanks! Xxx

[@aliciagadischkie6106]

Happy birthday Fraiser!! Looking forward to tomorrow's vlog.

[@ac8806]

Are you joking? I've been watching you for so long now, and you help me get motivated to clean, you inspire me everyday. One of the first things I do is check your channel for an update. I know how hard you work everyday and I see how much you've grown as a KZbinr and just the quality of your videos from the beginning just get better and better. That takes nothing but dedication and work.

[@mindfulmummasnetwork6025]

Absolutely it takes me a few days to do 1 video sometimes weeks and I only have 1 baby. Can't believe your filming everyday with 3. I love watching your videos and appreciate all the work you put in. ❤

[@rebekahmitchell1804]

Happy Birthday Fraser 🎂🎂 Your doing amazing Emily your true subscribers know just how hard you work on your videos. I'm amazed your doing Vlogmas with 3 kids! My baby is about to turn 1 3 days before Christmas and any mum product or tip I've learned about is from you! I'm so glad you mentioned co sleeping could you maybe do a video about the kids sleeping patterns during the night. My baby constantly wakes during the night I was putting it down to teething but he's just so fidgety in his cot xxxx

[@shazz_lawson8382]

Bless Jackson.....I can see Fraser in him ! My son hates shops.....he's 3 next week and we use the buggy still as he has a mobility problem,and every shop he crys as you enter ....took him out and did soft play inbetween shops for a rest and he still was crying in every shop after lol

[@sam-bewitched]

Emily you are amazing love your bubbly positivity. Really appreciate all your hard work you're a real inspiration when im having a bad day. You have a lovely family the boys are a credit to you both xx

[@ArksJunction]

Love your positive energy & your smile:-) love you! I get so inspired n motivated seeing ur videos... myself, being a mum of two lovely girls, handling the house & making videos, I know is not easy! Happy Birthday to Fraser :-)

[@amandaaguirre773]

Hi Emily! I’m usually not the type to leave comments on people’s videos, but I just wanted to say how much I love you channel! It always brings a smile to my face and makes my day. I live in the States in TN, just recently married on December 1st (Yaaay lol), and watching your videos definitely makes me excited to start a family with my husband, and hopefully I can put some of your mom hacks and tips to good use one day. Keep doing what your doing, it’s definitely more than luck that got you where you are to day. Hope you have wonderful day, and Merry Christmas!

[@belindaborg6855]

I dont even know how you do it and also how you always just know what to say. It all comes so naturally to you. You are so inspiring. The people who care and are avid followers know that this hasn’t happened because of luck!! Xxx

[@jessicaholben4543]

I love your channel and appreciate all your hard work! And so excited to get my planner in the mail!

[@lifeingeneral7761]

You are such a hard worker , we all love and appreciate your videos, keep up the hard work mama! 🌹✨❤️

[@michaelajia6435]

I have been following you since Jackson's birth! Can not believe he is speaking already! Kind of wish he is a baby forever but also so so proud of him xxx

[@iluvtoliveforjoy]

So darn festive!!🎄🎅🎁

[@MissPoezeltje]

You are such a positive mum, it is always great to see your Family

[@aliciaunaryan4751]

Your channel has grown so much & so quickly because your contents are helpful and inspiring. So many women relate to your topics. We appreciate all you bring to your channel Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦

Co-sleeping for the Win!! 💜💜 love your videos Emily, keep up the good work!

[@jalexandranlay]

emily, every video of yours cheers me up and makes me very happy ! everything you do we appreciate, but please take breaks when you need to and spend time with your gorgeous children ! wishing you the best always xx

[@asherlove02]

Yes, my oldest is a perfectionist as well. Any kind of mess (aside from toys being dumped) he can not stand and is always bothered. But I'm happy about your planner. Cant wait to get my hands on mine!

[@sangijacob]

Absolutely love watching your videos it always brings a smile to my face and your cleaning hacks are AMAZING... I live in Botswana and I am a stay at home mother of two and I have a full time help/Nanny at home and still struggle with looking after kids so when I see your videos I am amazed by all that you do and you do it so well. Keep it up.

[@stephgray6285]

It is not easy to make and edit videos! The amount I do and end up scrapping! Your make up is perfect btw! I love your videos! Hope Frazer has had a lovely birthday xxx

[@spudmug8474]

Loved seeing Caleb being so good with Jackson :)) Next Christmas maybe do a vlog every 2 days rather than every day? Loved your Xmas hacks and have 2 suit protectors full of wrapping paper (xmas/other) hanging up in wardrobe now, bought your soleil razor (could never find the mousse) also the floor spray mop. Love your children's present ideas too even though my 2 little grandsons (5 & 3) are p, sadly, estranged

[@beccathomas7156]

It’s clearly not luck Emily that your channel has grown, you are clearly creative, driven and talented! It is such a helpful positive channel! Sometimes people don’t realise what they’re saying xx

[@Goodlifexplorers]

I understand your juggle. I have mom guilt anytime I am doing something that takes me away from my kid. Snuggles from the kids are the best. Those balloons are super cool!

[@positivetransformationswit6207]

awwww Jackson is soooo cute hehe love his curly hair so much! and Caleb and Fraser are such lovely boys too i just love your family so much❤ i cant wait to see Frasers birthday vlog and then his party too🤩 your channel has grown because you are an amazing woman radiating positive vibes and u have an amazing work ethic❤❤❤😊🙌🏻 keep doing what you do! my fave youtuber by a clear mile!

[@tonigurung5018]

I love your channel Emily. Really helps me stay positive during the tough times of parenting lol. I think it shows how much hard work you put in to your channel ❤

[@jalyassin]

Emily don’t pay attention to the haters. You have so many fans and you clearly put a lot of work into what you do and it shows ❤️ PS that sweater is gorgeous on you 😍

[@brionyt664]

How annoying when you have to come and search your name because the notification hasn't gone off and this video wasn't in my subscription box!! Good thing I'm always looking out... Loving your vlogmas!! 🎄🎄♥️

[@Li9LoP]

They way you say Nativity 🤣🤣 .... Nayyyyy-tivity lol we say NA-tivity. So cute

[@annekevanlosenoord7390]

I cant imagine all the hard work that you put into this. THANK YOU EMILY for inspirering me. Im recently a mum of a sweet little girl Ella and I love all your video’s. Lots of love from Holland ❤️

[@mercyrose4237]

Another great vlog Emily!! Your channel is growing each day only because of your hardwork..you put your heart and soul into every video you make.. And that completely shows😍 Love you and your perfect family ❤

[@kirstenanna4179]

Omg Jackson is the cutest

[@shazz_lawson8382]

Hi Emily it must be hard finding the balance and vlogmas must be crazy ....when you said Fraser is going to be 8 ....I was watching when he was 6, this channel has not grown through"luck" it's hard work and you put hours in researching,uploading, you don't just put up a camera....I did try and do a video and I just couldn't do it....I don't know how you fit it in with 3 kids and upload such good content. I spent ages trying to edit. Keep up the good work xxx

[@BeautyBySage]

I love that you used your awesome wrapping paper hack from your Xmas hack video!😃🎁
