I stumbled across this blog a while ago and recently she did some posts that made me think of the two of you. Lately I've been wondering what it's really like to be an aunt. Since it will probably be a while before I know first hand (AHEM), I thought this was a nice way to explain the emotions surrounding it.

You'll have to let me know if she's spot on or just blowing smoke...
couldn't be more true. she put it so perfectly and I can relate to every word. and as Addie has grown from a Miss Wobble Head into a big, beautiful, bubbly, Miss Two Year Old, my auntie love for her has only grown stronger and deeper. The Wild Things had it right. "We'll eat you up, we love you so."
