It doesn&#8217;t always work for her, but she certainly can be very persuasive.  Every 2 minutes.  Till she gets what she wants.  Or a time out.

She gives hugs, and kisses, and more hugs.  She&#8217;s so petite that I can still (almost) easily pick her up, at the age of 4.  She still easily fits on my lap, and crawls up in it on a regular basis.
