Great Aunt Again!
I am a great aunt -- again. I have two great nieces and five great nephews! Why in the world does the term "great (or grand) aunt" sound so much older and more decrepit than grandmother? You say great aunt to me and I see lavender. Anyway, the newly arrived is Blake and belongs to my nephew. From the pics on my phone he is robust and lively. So glad to welcome him to the ever growing throng of young ones to the family.

Hi all. Well, there is no way around this — I have bad news. I had my gall bladder out and, long story short, I have gall bladder cancer....

Yes, once again, I am waiting — just biding my time until my surgery appointment on Wednesday. Am I nervous — maybe a little — do I still...

I have been a great aunt since 2008 at the age of 41. I am too young to be one. I have two great neices,Kylie,7,and Alexis,2. I love spending time with them.
Julie -- well, I am definitely not too young but it just sounds ancient. But, they are all cute kids!
Maybe better to think of them as adjectives, rather than a title ;) Congratulations though!! You'll make a great grand aunt!
Bonnie - yes, just adjectives! I remember thinking that "great/grand" people were just really old but I guess they weren't! Well, at least this great/grand doesn't feel old!
