A special message for her nieces
earest Nieces, The role of Aunt or “Auntie” is special whether you have children or not. My oldest niece was born at Easter time. Seeing her in the delivery ward at the hospital, my first comment was that my little brother has a beautiful daughter. My second niece shined like an angel at her christening, as all babies do. When my youngest niece was born several years later, I cross-stitched a needlepoint announcement for her.
I have a funny shirt that says, “An aunt is like a Mom, only cooler.” So, on this Saint Valentine’s Day, I wish my nieces a lifetime full of peace, joy, and love, and to continue to always keep Jesus in your hearts. Happy St. Valentine’s Day to all! Sincerely, Auntie Anne (Elizabeth Anne Temple)
