Becoming an Aunt

I was going to write a post about why you should never save jeans that you may some day wear again when you've lost weight. You know after you're all done having kids and everything goes back to the way it was before your first pregnancy? Ha! That however will have to be for another time. Perhaps by then I can include a photo.

Today I had my usual addiction carefully monitored time on Facebook so as to not spend gobs of time on it to lose 15 or so minutes on it. As I was checking my newsfeed I saw that my SIL had announced her and my BIL's exciting news: they're having a baby! Their daughter will be born at the beginning of May. Obviously they're thrilled. I immediately emailed her to see if she was OK with me putting it as my Facebook status.

We were thrilled too when we heard the news earlier. In addition to being happy for them because they're becoming parents, I am super* excited about my new role: aunt. This is the first time I will be an aunt.

A. Elliot's Lesson that I Already Knew: Being an aunt is exciting!

*I know "wicked" is the big well known MA word but I really think "super" should have that distinction. I am amazed, or I should say super amazed, by how often people around here say "super" including my own kids.
