Babies

I became a great aunt about two years ago when my nephew Adam and his beautiful wife Ella had their son Thomas.  I was so proud and happy.  I was also in denial that the next generation would be having the babies from here on out.  With only one great nephew I could brush it off and refuse to admit that my baby days were over forever.  Then my niece Stephanie and her sweet husband had their daughter Tinely.  My denial was slowly becoming a reality.  Today the deal was sealed.  My niece Natalie and her dear husband Jorge had their son Sam.  I was 16 years old when Natalie was born, she was my very first niece now she has made my great aunt status not easy to dismiss.  I love babies. I love to hold them, smell them, kiss them, talk to them, and simply enjoy them.  I will accept my reality and let the next generation do what I cannot....have them!
