Who is the sucker now?

Sometimes Charlotte is the SWEETEST little girl in the world! But, she plays me like a fine tuned fiddle too... and I know it, but I take every ounce I can get. Last night while Charlotte was stalling, and supposed to be in bed.... she asked for Puppy. I took Puppy up to her and this was our conversation:

Charlie Girl: Mommy, you come lay for me?
Mommy: No Honey, you need to go to sleep. Kiss kiss.
CG: How about you lay real quick?
Mommy: No, Sweets - you need to go to sleep.
CG: Real quick?
Mommy: Good night, Charlotte.
CG: Mommy, give me a kiss.
Mommy: MMMMWWWAAHHH!!!!
CG: Okay, now a hug.
CG: Tuck me in Mommy
Mommy: Okay, honey - good night.
CG: Oh Mommy - while giving me the biggest bear hug ever - come lay for me! I
love you Mommy!!!
Mommy: Just for a minute....
CG: I love you snuggle me Mommy!
Mommy: I love to snuggle you too Charlie Girl!
CG: Snuggle tight Mommy!
Mommy: Okay honey.
CG: Tighter Mommy. Like this. (and reaches for my arms to go around her)
Mommy: Okay, sweets - love you!
CG: Love you too Mommy. Love Snuggle!


MELT!!!!!!!!

I was an instant puddle and of course knew that I would lay with her for as long as she asked... there will be time to break bad habits later, right? :) And while I'm contributing to her perfecting those stalling techniques... I'll assume responsibility with a big smile for now :)
