The Joys of Aunthood

Don’t they look fun to hang out with?

I colored with A, and she informed me that zebras are black and white, not magenta and turquoise, as I colored them; at almost 6, she is an expert.

I watched A Cinderella Story with N curled up under my arm on the couch fighting sleep half the time and blowing a piercingly loud whistle the other half; at 3.5, he is part heathen boy and part baby.

It’s nice to be an aunt.

    Being an aunt (or an uncle in my case) is really cool. You can spoil the heck out of them, act like a kid yourself and then send them home. It’s like being a grandparent without having to be old. :-)

    You have a cute niece and nephew and it sounds like you are a wonderful aunt.

    I adore being an aunt. T-bone is right … it is lovely to act like a kid with them. And Jordana is right … I am a wonderful aunt ;) … I mean, the kids are cute.

    Though I do despise going to their raucous, kid-filled birthday parties!
