Day 2: 1/2/11

Day 2:

This is my little man, my Mr. L, my nephew and Godson. His energy, his impish belly laugh, his tireless joy in being part of the family is inspiring and a source of great joy for all of us. I am thankful I caught up with him in a quiet moment, a stolen minute of exploring, before the toddler energy caught up with him again.

I am thankful for the delight in sharing the toddler times, with the little boy I adore, who is my baby to share, but isn't mine alone. I am thanksful to be an aunt. Growing up an only child, with family mostly scattered across the counrty, I am thankful to be able to an active participant in my nephew's life. Being an aunt is a joy, and I am grateful.
