Every time one of the niblings sends me a text (google chat, whatever) with something they've drawn/written, or thought about, or a cool app they've found, I am just so darn pleased with the relationship we're building.
I loved my aunts and uncles, when I was the age the kids are now. But I wasn't *close* to them, even the ones I saw regularly.
I wanted to be a different kind of aunt to my niblings, and here I am doing just that. I take this job very seriously and it's gratifying to see my investment paying dividends.

I'm a sucker for pretty fabrics, and I needed to give Chanukah gifts to the niblings... So they got zipper pouches :)

2) My #Niblings (#Nieces and #Nephew). What happens when (#NotIf) one of them comes out, or...
