Washington, July 13 : Julia Roberts has admitted that she loves acting because it helps her rejuvenate and become a better mother.

"Going to work recharges me on a whole different level. When I come home to my family, I''m more enriched," Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

She said: "When you''re a mum, so much happens within the confines of you home, so when you venture outside for a while, it adds to the colours of your life."

The 41-year-old actress added: "I still find it fun making movies. I jokingly say that it''s fun to spend time with people who are more than three and a half feet tall."

She also mentioned that her children provide her a sense of joy.

She added: "When I look at my children I see a real sense of joy. They''re happy kids."

Roberts has three children, twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, four, and Henry, two, with husband Danny Moder. (ANI)
