sometimes i have a hard time accepting how old my two beautiful nieces are getting...they have grown and blossomed into two of the most remarkable young ladies i know...i am so proud of the both of them...
our times spent together are so precious...whether it be a girls weekend...or a ladies nite out...or movie nite...or just getting together for an ice cream...that time is spent in lots of laughter...lots of sharing...sometimes tears...but all in all a geniune love for each other...
when they were little...it was easy to plan time with them...but now that they have grown...and are able to drive...they have lives of their own...their own friends...loves...activities...
they still make time for their auntie...and that truly warms the cockles of my heart...
my oldest niece will be leaving soon to college...she has worked so hard to get to where she is...and it was through this hard work...her determination...that she has landed in a great school...at first we thought it would be a few hours away...which was difficult to comprehend...but now...it looks like she will be out of state...not only out of state...but in a whole different time zone...
as hard as that is...her sister & i are already planning our visits...there will be a few for sure...
and as these last few weeks are slowly closing in...before she takes off...i know that she has tons of friends that she needs to spend time with...but even in that...she is making sure that we have "our" time...a few more get togethers...she and her sister are thoughtful that way...
the younger niece...is a spit fire...i love her spunk...her zeal...her craziness...
the older one...gets mistaken for being quiet...but she is quite the comedy relief...that is probably part of the fun...it is so unexpected...
i do not think the two of them realize how much joy they bring me...i love hearing all about their escapades...their loves...their shenanigans...even being able to share each others hurts...the story that is their life...
i am thankful for them...i am thankful of their hearts...most of all...i am thankful to know them...
love you j & m...
