I have found a lot of happiness in being Aunt Lynn to not only my nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews, but all the other children that I have come to know and love. I don't know what it is about these sweet children, but I feel a great love for them, a concern for their welfare. I become attached quite easily and can't seem to get my fill of these little ones in my arms.
This little guy and his family got to spend the 4th of July with us yesterday. We were aching a bit because we didn't have any family with us. Lee and I had a great time with this cute guy, isn't he the sweetest? I feel grateful that I able to be Aunt Lynn to so many. I wish I could make a double of myself, so I had more time to split up between them all!
Since that isn't possible, I just try to keep in touch and spend at least a little bit of time with this little kids who I love so much. It truly has been a blessing in my life.
And for a person like me, whose heart is missing their own family, I am grateful to have so many friends that seem like they could be ours too!
Good night dear friends!
