Glib Gabe

I'm not sure when it began but Gabe started paying me compliments when I get dressed to go out.

"Mummy's so pretty!" he'd gush, and even though I'm nowhere near gorgeous, it certainly feels great to be admired, never mind that it came from a kiddo who knows nuts about beauty.

He notices your clothes too. The other day I was wearing a blouse with two ribbons which I tied into a bow at the back. He rushed toward me declaring, "Mummy's so pretty! Mummy's flower so pretty." I got a hug too. Ok... he was just trying to reach the bow out of curiosity.

Ah what the heck. I'm pretty!

isn't the adoration from our own children so innocent and heartfelt. Bask in it! Hope it will continue even after they see the world from rose-tinted glasses.
