My wonderful almost 4 year old niece seems to be having some "issues" with all the attention her one year old brother receives...she has grown up so fast and DH and I have often told her that we want her to "stay little forever" and she responds "but I have to get bigger!". Anyway, a couple weeks ago I was teasing her about growing up so fast and how I wish she could stay little forever...she turned to me and said "Aunt Jen, how come you only love me when I'm a baby?" Well, I held it in but wanted to cry...who would have known that she was interpreting what we said that way?? I assured her that we would love her forever and ever and it's OK that she's growing up...and I just had to make and send her a card so she would feel special receiving mail and would know that her Uncle Bill and I will always love her, no matter what!
TFL!
