It's a cute way to talk with kids. Only "anne" means mother. Annec"cim" (actually anneciğim) means "my" one and only mother. When talking with kids you can call them what you are to them adding that "my one and only" or just "my " additional. You can call your little sibling ablacığım (ablacım) = originally means my one and only big sister. but it's a cute way to show the bond between you and your little sibling if you call your little sister/brother ablacığım.
