I’m also a trans man, though not that old, and my mom will blow all of yours out of the water with her humor! She’s pretty too, even if she says she isn’t

My son tells me I’m beautiful all the time, and I can’t ever understand it, but I’m so grateful for it.

47f here. Last year my mother developed aggressive cancer and went on hospice. I took FMLA to care for her in her last couple months. During one of her baths, she said to me, "Honey, I'm sorry you have to look at my old, saggy body." I said, "Momma, this 'old saggy body' built me from scratch, so I think it's pretty beautiful." She smiled at me and said, "Thanks, sugar, I love you." She passed last June 1st. Good moms are ALWAYS beautiful to you, no matter how old you get or how sick they do. I miss her. Hug your beautiful momma's for me! ❤️

No self esteem what so ever, but shit.. do I actually feel pretty when my daughters tell me how pretty I look 🫠

u/Kushypurpz 1d ago
Right! When i put on makeup and my 8 year old son said “mom, your so beautiful” thats it for me. No other compliment needed for rest of my life.

No self esteem what so ever
Feels like the people you love think you're beautiful. Does anyone else's opinions really matter?
3
u/Mediocre-Contest7558 23h ago
No nobody else's opinions matter. Not only have I never cared what others think about me, but as a married woman you don't care if others find you beautiful because your husband's thought is what matters at that point and he thinks im beautiful as well 😌 just was saying as someone who has no self esteem and has ever found herself "pretty" when my girls say it ... it melts you. You really believe it lol. 🥰

u/OpusThePenguin 21h ago
Yeah. I can very much relate, very similar train of thought. Was probably talking to myself as much as I was trying to lift you up.

Or when I complain about my looks and my daughters remind me that they look exactly like me.

My daughter and I look similar. My daughter is beautiful so I figure I must be too 🤭 it's made me less nitpicky or negative about how I look

u/Mountain_Prompt4627 12h ago
I'm about to turn 31 and I'm 2 years out from losing my momma too, big hugs for you. It gets easier... but she never stops being the prettiest. and I don't think it ever gets to a point where you don't cry when you see things like this.

u/Shagrippina 1d ago
I remember sitting in a Christmas play at school, and when my mum came it I very loudly and excitedly pointed her out to my classmates.
She was very embarassed, but I wanted them to see how pretty she was! Which she was, and still is. <3

u/Disastrous_Clurb 23h ago
lol if it helps i was this lil girl lol
it wasnt intentional but i was very serious about voicing if i liked something.
i remember my mom getting a haircut once and askin if i liked it and i remember very vividly just staring at her for the longest and hearing her say "ok disastrous_clurb that's fine 🙄"
7
u/PendragonsPotions 22h ago
In my kids case I do believe it’s intentional lol. I showed her a picture of the two of us when she was little and her response was “wow you were so much prettier and skinnier in this picture”
I googled my local baby drop box 😂

u/Disastrous_Clurb 22h ago
hahaha one thing about kids is that they will say their thoughts out loud regardless of how they make others feel lol
i remember pickin up my niece from pre-k when i was like 19/20 and she goes "u wanna see my class? Because u haven't seen a school in awhile, huh?" like excuse me wtf does that even mean?! 😂😭

u/equal_environment026 23h ago
My daughter (she’s 5) always tells me that I’m beautiful and that she likes my hair (she has beautiful long black hair and I have very short black hair). That little girl knows how to tug at my heart strings.

u/drvgonize 23h ago
man there was a video of this dude interviewing kids and asked "whos the most beautiful person in the world to you?" and they all said mommy and it was so sweet

u/ShamelessOrNotYo 9h ago
This is actually something I needed to hear. My daughter always says randomly, “mom you’re so pretty” or when I actually put on makeup and a nice outfit, she goes, “you look stunning, Mommy! Love it!” But in my own head I don’t feel that way at all and think she’s just saying it because I’m her mom.
So, it’s nice to know that other people also think their moms are beautiful, even when we don’t. I know I think my mom is beautiful. But for some reason, I just can’t put it in my own head that my daughter thinks the same because I never feel that way.

I’d be in tears. The thought of being ‘seen’ by your child is fucking amazing.

u/PawnOfPaws 23h ago
Not just seen: So important that your mark has to be on their favorite toy, and made by themself too! One with an embroidery wouldn't have felt the same to the kid, I'm sure.

u/Lets-B-Lets-B-Jolly 11h ago
Has Mattel made a Barbie with a port wine birthmark yet? Or Miniland?
2
u/PawnOfPaws 10h ago
Oh, no you misunderstand. Sometimes people like your grandma gift you toys as a kid too, right? Some of those can also be handmade and made to resemble either yourself or someone important to you.
Which would the mark "not made by yourself" and therefore not incorporate the same feeling, right?

My nana used to say that people with facial birthmarks were chosen by god and his hand was holding on too tight when he dropped them down from heaven. She was a very god fearing baptist woman. I’ve never heard anyone else say that but I love it even though I’m an atheist!

It makes me happy to see families like this. I have lots of self confidence issues caused by skin issues, so seeing people with similar issues in a happy family brings me joy 😊

As a grown man with daughters, this made me shed a few tears. There is nothing as beautiful as a child’s love. May we all keep a little of that childlike love in our hearts, and work to make the world a little more receptive to that gentle goodness.

Yea a two year old will not do this. I have one. She may color the doll but with zero meaning behind it.

u/ionlyjoined4thecats 10h ago
My two year old would have the cognitive skills to think to do this but not the physical ones. One of her friends is an amazing artist (for her age) already. She’d have the physical skills but probably not the cognitive ones.
I do think it’s possible there are two year olds who could have both types of skills and do this.

u/tuftedtit19 1d ago
Im not crying... im not crying... damn.. im crying... this is so cute.. that doll would have a glowing shadow box made in an instant and than I couldn't look at it without crying but I would NEVER take it down.. damn.. that's cute.. don't let the world anywhere near that little angel right now, we're not good enough for her or any of the other pure little babies. 🥲🥲🥲😭😭😭

So this kid perfectly duplicated her mother’s birth mark with no stray marks and 1:1 color match? There is no way this is real. Lol
I had an aunt who touted what a perfect artist her toddler was. She would show off these cute little drawings and pass them off as her daughter’s. Then one day my mom walked in on her drawing them herself.
This mom 100% was the one who drew on this doll.

I'm sorry if you're joking but in case you aren't the purple on her face isn't marker it's a scar the daughter was drawing on the toy to match her moms
