I love being an Aunt!

Can I just say, I love being an aunt, probably more then anything else in the world?? Yesterday I was playing Animal Crossing with my niece over the internet, and the first thing she said to me was, "I love you". And I all most started to cry. She is such a sweetheart, and I just can't imagine not having them in my life.
We get to have my sisters kids come over sometimes and stay with us for a few days, and they stayed with us over the 4th of July weekend this year, and it was just really fun. We slept in a tent in my dad's backyard on the 4th after the fireworks, and it was just a really fun night. We laughed a lot.
Nate is so good with all the kids too. I am pretty sure we are the favorite aunt and uncle, and it makes the family parties we go to so much fun! Of course we are exhausted after them too. When my sisters kids come to stay it takes us a few days to recover from everything, and sometimes its nice to get back into the swing of things, but then I start to miss them again. Hopefully they will be coming over again soon. But I really do love being an aunt....
