My personal stylist
Tonight while I was sitting with Anya during her pre-bath potty time, she kept trying to grab my face, something I did not want her to do. After several failed attempts despite warnings that I did not want her to, she caught me, and as I was about to give her a firm “No!” she said, “You’re so pretty, Mommy!” I cracked up, which of course made her repeat it, which of course fueled my laughter even more. Then she said it about 100 times more, running her fingers through my hair each time. By the end, there definitely wasn’t anything pretty about me - I probably resembled Cousin Itt more than myself!

She’s already learning the value of sucking up =)

And the art of distraction!
