My nephew, Micah, is now 10 years old. Is this really possible?
Being an aunt is one of the greatest things ever. I will never forget how Micah would run to me as a toddler, laughing and smiling, as I called out his name. I will never forget holding him in the hospital after he was just born and being so overwhelmed with emotion. I love the joy the fills up in my heart at the thought of getting to see both of my nephews when I am sitting on the airplane or in the car knowing that after our long separation, we will be together again. And I hate the feeling of saying "good-bye" to them when I get back in that car or on that airplane because I know that I will miss them so much.
It's hard to believe that 10 years have passed and even harder to think about him being 20 in 10 more years. One of the greatest ups of the past 10 years has been having the privilege of being an aunt. Happy Birthday, Micah!
