Auntie Mama
I am a proud Auntie Mama to many little boys and a couple of little girls. That’s the upside of being from a culture where everybody is.. well.. in everybody’s business. I get to be in theirs haha! This is the only area where I stake a claim. The kiddies.
I have claimed them to be a bit of my own. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE and ADORE them!! They are the biggest deepest purest joys of my life and my heart. There is no greater joy than kiddies joy.
A couple of weeks ago, one of them called me Auntie Mama, just out of the blue. He was laughing and maybe a bit kidding around. And it hit me, that is exactly what I am, Auntie Mama. A little bit their extra mama. Like they are my bonus gifts of children.
