We are Auntie and Uncle
When my nephew, Isaac, was little he couldn't say Lane. All we got from Uncle Lane was Uncle.
It stuck
When my dear Aunt Lois passed away, whom I always referred to as "auntie"
I thought about our sweet relationship, all the things we did together, all she taught me, and decided I would carry on her legacy and be Auntie, it goes so well with Uncle!
The kids still call us Deenise (that's the way Em's boys say it, too cute!) or niece, or Lane
but we're generally referred to as Auntie and Uncle.
We love the nieces and nephews and love being the favorite...and work hard to earn that status! We spoil them like crazy and love every minute of it!
In my opinion, every aunt and uncle, every niece or nephew, every grandma or grandpa should be the favorite. Who couldn't use a little more lovin'?
If this is anything like grandparenting....wahoo!

I think it is like grandparenting.
I am auntie, too.
How funny.
We spoil all kids. Hence we have kids here. It's picking up again since the move as the neighbors get to know us.
