Journaling:
All my nieces and nephews have always called me “Jen-Jen” or “Jenny” until they could pronounce all three syllables of my name. Not you. From the moment you began to talk you have called me “Aunt JuJu”. Just something you came up with on your own; your special name for me. Now I know that with time “Aunt JuJu” will slowly transform to Aunt Jennipher. I am already starting to see it happen. Right now you alternate between “Aunt JuJu” and Aunt Jennipher. And one day “Aunt JuJu” will just be a distant memory. I have to admit, I will miss being “Aunt JuJu”.

Great use of strong colours and still keeping the photo at the forefront! Love the story, I can totally hear your proud-sad voice as you acknowledge your sweet niece is growing up and out of her pet name for you! Love the real life in your journalling, that I can hear you reading the words!
