Welcome to parenthood. This is about the time that the dual nature of humans appear. If y'all are not the ones teaching her this behavior (and I can't imagine you are), then she is learning much of it from the heathens she is attending school with. This is about the time that the dual nature of human children starts to appear though. You will begin to see this side of the cute child more and more until she reaches about 13 and then she will stop talking to you for very long periods of time for a few years. You will still see the cuteness on many occasions, but be prepared for this side of her to be more and more apparent as she starts trying to see what works best to get what she wants. Do not feed this behavior with any kind of reward else it will continue growing to massive proportions.
Sorry you are having a hard time with mom gone too.
