You know your kids are growing up when...

* Little Sister says her favorite television show is How It's Made

* Older Sister is entering 4th grade

* Little Sister is entering 2nd grade

* I walked down the hallway only to find Older Sister cleaning
the bathroom sink....without being asked.

* Both girls can successfully make their own breakfast in the morning


But as difficult as it is to accept they are growing up, I know that at the end of the day when they are snuggled up against me before bedtime....they'll both always be my babies.

You know you're an aunt in denial when:

- they're in WHAT grades?!?!?

- you get the pictures in the family emails and have moments of "awww" mingled with memories of their small (as in two year old) warm bodies pressed up against you in tight hugs

- you're thinking about all the cool things you could do with a four-year-old niece...only to discover you no longer have one!

We have been contemplating little girls turning into not-so-little girls ourselves, as our own little girl keeps popping up, and up, and up...

Hugs to you all!
