Do you want to know what the best part of my life is, thus far...

The part that fills my heart with love and my eyes with tears of joy...

The part that teaches me more about life than any college professor...

The part that solidifies my desire to be a mom every day...



It's being an Aunt.Aunt Widsy. Aunt Hee-hee. Aunt Dzee-dzee. Aunt Poops (don't ask).
