A little translation please?

Abu wants to get this shirt, but not if she doesn't know what it says~

pretty please?

Hmmm, I believe お母さま (okāsama) is the respectful way to say お母さん (okāsan), "mother".
And the particle 「か」 at the end of a sentence turns the sentence into a question.

So I guess it says "Mommy?" or "Are you my mommy?" or something like that.

Don't take my word for it though.

OMG! I THINK IT IS!
(remembering what little Japanese was learned three years ago)

THANK YOU HASSUN! ! BIG HUG! !

Cool shirt, by the way!

Funny stuff. I would by it regarless but kudos to figuring out what it means, I have seen some disasterous moments.
