Melting Mom's Annoyance the Easy Way
If you ever want to make your Mom instantly forgive you for weeks and weeks of random bad sleep habits, just perform the following four easy steps:
1. Place your adorable little chubby hands on either side of you mom's face.
2. Turn your mom's head until she is facing you.
3. Say, "Mommy, you're pretty. I love you!"
4. Kiss her on the nose.
INSTANT MELT. Guaranteed.

it also works for forgiving weeks of chronic misbehavior as a certain little boy goes "through a phase".
I found that Gavin will kiss me randomly to bribe me into giving him something...like juice in the middle of the night (I didn't say it worked...)
Look how innocent and sweet. And then they wake up.
Why don't they do that wonderful kiss and compliment thing more often?
Isn't funny how they can do that...just a look and we melt. :o)
Awww, how sweet is that. Hope gave me a kiss while I was napping today. So sweet!
Yep, works every time! For the non-talkers, just a great big grin and a hug works, too.
She's such a little angel.
She is NOT fooling your cat.
You would think that at some point that particular song and dance would lose some of its effectiveness, right? Well, you'd be wrong.
*sigh*
I still forgive the teenager anything when he tells me he loves me. Random, out of the blue love... not the kind I force by saying it first. :)
Yep, that would pretty much do it for me! LOL
that'll get you every time....
awwww, that is so sweet! I know I'd forgive Freddy for anything anytime if he said something like that! :-)
I love the way they look when they sleep. How do they know so early and so well how to manipulate us into puddles of pudding? Sigh....
She looks so precious all sleepy and chillin' there! I am 100% certain if my kid did that, I'd be buying her whatever she wanted.....I'm a sucker like that.
awe!!! reading about it melted MY icy heart!!!
omgosh!!!!! so so sooooo sweet!
I'm 38 and my mom is 65 - will this still work or just seem icky?
Hallie
Yep, that would work!!
I swear Little Man and Alexis share a brain!
He came into the bedroom last week when I was working, asked to be let on the bed and suddenly he quietly said "Mama?" and when I answer "yes, baby?" he said "I love you!"
And I literally thought of giving him 10 bags of oreos and the keys to my Jeep.
The power they have these kids...
Awwww. That is just the most precious thing. Melted you into a puddle of goo, didn't it? And how could it not. :-)
That'll do it every time. But, I'm curious? How did she sleep?!

I know you've heard it before, but she is so smart for her age!
MANIPULATION! Damn! We women learn it early!
SO sweet! :)
Yep, I have one that does that too. And it works every time, that manipulative lttle brat!
perfect baby moment.
That picture is precious defined and that behavior... I just melted all the way over here!
So sweet!
oooh how perfect! I love those moments--yeah mom!
way too cute.
I'm melting! Too sweet.
PLEASE get Mr. H to try and get a picture of her doing that. She (and you) will be so glad to have it one day. Plus, we wouldn't mind seeing it either!
