It matters
What kind of an aunt am I? I've often wondered this, and tried to be better and better...and I've often wondered, "Why does it matter?" Oh...but it does. My little nephew Dakota called and asked if he could have a sleepover with me...just him and me. He's seriously adorable and oh-so-cute....I just couldn't resist. So, he's coming over tonight...and, as my sister Joni (Dak's mom) said, "To snuggle and watch a movie". Adorable. So I've been thinking how this relates to my joy in the journey...and I've realized that even though I haven't found my prince yet, even though I haven't experienced children of my own, I can love and cherish and help raise my little ones around me...like little Dak, and all my other nieces and nephews. So it does matter.

You are the best Aunt I have ever known. You treat each one like they are your most favorite and that you love just them in that moment. I always see you put yourself out even when it is at your busiest just to take care of a little broken heart. You are so good to everyone!
