Pretty?

Sitting on our queen-sized bed, my little tyke was studying the photo frame hanging abv our bed.
Who is that in the photo? I asked him, wondering if he could still recognised us in our makeover.
"Mummy and Daddy.", he replied without tad of hesitation.
"Wow, so clever." I said.
"Mummy pretty?", I asked him,
"Yes." he smiled at me with his beaming eyes...
Then I point to myself. "How abt now?", I asked him again.
He looked at me and then back to the photo frame and then he shook his head
"Not pretty.".

I pretended to look 'sad'.
Seeing that I am 'sad', the little impressionable 4-year-old immediately tried to comfort me by singing a different tune.
"mummy u keep long hair that u will be pretty again."

"Like the one in the photo?" He nodded his head and smile. I smiled back, giving him a big hug.
Seeing that I am happy with his answer, he also returned me with his wet kisses.
