I joke that I am becoming a soccer mom, without the children. I have girl scouts, random days with my nephew, lunch dates with my nieces and basketball season coming up.
I feel like I am finally in a spot where I can start to fulfill the role that I always wanted.
I want to be the aunt that they turn to... and at the moment since I have no kids, I am the cool aunt. The one that everyone can run to when something happens, because no one will really get in trouble. haha.
I love it, I revel in it, and I hope that it continues for years to come.
The funny/sad/cute thing is that I have been imagining a time when I get my own place. And it will most definitely have to be more than one bedroom, maybe even more than 2 bedrooms, not just because I hope that my first home will be my home for a long time, but also because I want my nieces and nephews to have their own room. One room for the 4 of them, although I think that having all 4 of them at one time probably will never happen, I want them to have a place where they feel safe, other than just at home.
I dont have kids of my own and it may be several years until I do, but until then the 2 J's and 2 T's are my life. And I love every second of it!
In other news I got a lovely text today from I. I dont know if I've ever mentioned how much I love talking to him, how he makes me smile - every single time I talk to him, or that I hate the fact that he is over 500 miles away. Spontaneous Jessie would go to DC to visit with him, but Regular Jessie is terrified. I really have absolutely no way of knowing if he likes me as much as I like him. He lives with his grandma and sister and I dont exactly know how a visit would go over. And also, really, I'm terrified of going alone, because what if its a disaster? Then I am all alone. Eek! But on the other hand I desperately want to do some traveling by myself. Its like I am in a catch-22. But mostly what keeps me from even bringing up the idea is the fact that I dont have a job, and thus no money and thus the whole travel idea is kind of a moot point. Perhaps I will revisit the situation when I get a job. :)
Yea, thats number like 23 on the list of things to do when I get a job. Haha.
Anyway, heres to being the cool aunt, and dreaming of a chance with I.
