I’m an Aunty to three beautiful children. I am also child free. Those kids know how much I love them and I would do anything for them. The relationship changes as they get older- you are not needed anywhere near as much and don’t see them as often, however they still know where I am! They can let themselves into my house anytime they want, they can ask me for a lift anywhere, and if I get to hang out with them, then that’s an added bonus!
