I know I ask a lot of questions here so I'm sorry if I'm filling up the "Ask A Mommy" board a bit too much. I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to being a baby though so I'm naturally an inquisitive little guy . . .
Anyway, I'd like to ask everyone a question, both Mommies and babies; Mommies, what is your idea of a perfect baby? And babies, what's your idea of a perfect Mommy? Come to think of it, the Mommies can tell us their idea of a perfect Mommy too and same goes for the abies.
One thing: I hope anyone who reads the Mommies' replies doesn't try to change themselves just because of the answer. It's totally hypothetical. In other words, I hope nobody attempts to be sissyish just to please a Mommy who likes sissies, for example. Which also means the Mommies can be as open as they want; Mommies, if you would love to have an abie girl, say so.
I personally don't have an idea of the "perfect" baby. I enjoy the variety I get from my callers and always being suprised with new ideas and fantasies. I adjust easily to new situations. I do love to spoil a sweet AB, but I also enjoy the challenge of a naughty lil one too. I love each and everyone of my little ones and I celebrate all their differences.

You know, it is so fun because we are all different and there are abies who love me and abies who probably think I am a nutter. And I cannot say what a perfect AB would be for me. I know some with whom I have clicked and they tend to be very communicative and super imaginative. I am trying more to be a good baby talk mommy but I think my natural tendency is to be more the naughty mommy.
I don't think there is a perfect abie for me. Except maybe my real time abie, but we all know he is far from perfect as well. I guess I prefer not to limit myself. I might miss out on a wonderful abie to play with if I set out looking for a certain type.
Yeah Mommy Scarlet, I agree with that. I love to try all kinds of new stuff. So I can't really say I have a type. And every baby that calls me is so different and when we do stuff together it just fits. But it is different with each of them and I like that. Keeps things from getting to mundane.
*giggles* thank you mommy Star, well I learn from all the mommys here too. And I learn alot from all the babies I sit for and take care of. Thats why it is so fun to meet so many different ones.
A perfect mommy is not perfect, she is one who makes mistakes just as much as anyone else. But instead of getting all mad and disappointed she learns from them and then in turn teaches the little ones under her care lessons she had learned from her mistakes, hoping that they do not make the same.
She kisses boo boos, she disciplines with love, she takes time out of her day to spend with the little ones. She is tired but she still manages to smile and give hugs. And when she gets a little ticked off, she maintains her cool and lectures just enough to make little ones understand what they did was wrong and why it was wrong. She dries tears and helps to mend those first broken little hearts from first loves. She remembers what it's like to be a kid, and gets silly sometimes just to prove it. And she is fiercely protective of those she loves.
She doesn't have to be pretty, she doesn't have to be skinny, she doesn't have to be rich or well versed in art and opera, but she has to be able to show interest in what her littles ones like. But most of all, above all this she must hold them in her heart and love them with her whole being.
THAT is my perfect Mommy.

Sniff Sniff! Gets out tissue and dries my eyes! That was beautiful and well versed. Gives Stacie a medal for her essay on the perfect mommy and a huge giraffe hug.
Oh Lacy, I would love to be your mommy, we could change eachother's diapers and stuff. Plus, wow, a furbaby! What could be more awesome then that?
Have a great day everyone!
Stacie
