Buttering up mom

I own a nightgown that is perhaps the UGLIEST nightgown known to mankind. Warren threatens to throw it out every time I wear it. He says, "Please, please, I don't care how much you spend to replace it, just BUY SOMETHING ELSE!!!" :-) It is long, white cotton, with tiny buttons at the top, smocking/embroidery across the chest, ruffled poofy sleeves, and a cotton lace trim around the whole darn thing. My good friend gave it to me 5 years ago as a gift when William was born (so not only is it UGLY, it is also very OLD). She said she thought it looked comfortable (which it is), and that it would be easy to nurse in (which it was).

The other morning, I walk into Nate and Drew's room wearing my horrid nightgown, with serious bedhead, and bad breath. Nate sits up, looks at me in wonder and says:

"Mommy, you yook yike a pwincess!!!"

This is a boy who knows how to impress the ladies.... :-)
