Little faces that fill the void.

Like I said in my "About" page, I'm not married and I don't have any kids. I'm not going to lie, the not being married thing kinda sucks. Well actually, the part that sucks isn't really about not being married. It's more about being alone. A cute boyfriend would do the trick in filling that void juuust fine. Anyways, not having kids has never really bothered me. I want kids some day but it's not like I'm desperate to have any right now. (like I am to have a husband) Just kidding. kinda. Well I started thinking recently, why aren't I desperate to fill the the kid void. I came across my answer today. I had lunch today with my good friend Tiffany and her 2 daughters Keegan (3) & Addison (6mo.) When I met Tiff Keegan was 6mo old so I've been her Auntie Jenn for quite a while. I realized today that I am fine with not having kids of my own because.........
I LOVE being "Auntie Jenn"! Even if we aren't related by blood we sure are related by love. The following photos are the little faces that fill the "kid void" in my heart.

This is Keegan. Keegs for short. I am in love with her. Seriously. I get excited to see her, I have a great time when I'm with her, and I am so sad when I have to leave her. I never thought I could love a little person this much. I love her so much it's hard for me to even fathom having a kid of my own one day and loving them anymore than I love Keegs. I think that part of why I love her so much is because she gets soooo excited when she sees me. She gets a huge smile and screams "AUNT JENN!!!"

Introducing...Delaney!! She really is my niece. She belongs to my step sister Heather. And she is FEISTY!! I love her to death. She is 6 now. She is REALLY into craft and projects which I love! She lives in California so sadly I don't get to see her as much as I would like. She is SUPER smart, and really down to earth. She's not a little diva or anything. She is just a normal adorable girl who loves to sing & dance! I hate missing her. :(

These two cuties are Christian & Isabelle. I'm miss Jenn to them. I've worked with their mom, Jennifer, for 8 years so I knew them in her tummy even before they were born. Christian is the silliest little boy I've ever seen. He is FULL of life. When he was little he was a HANDFUL, but now that he's a little older, he's calmed down a bit and is really sweet & funny. Isabelle is 7 going on 17. She is really smart (Jennifer would tell you too smart for her own good). She got an ipod touch a few months ago and became a texting queen. I got texts all the time saying "I love you miss Jenn." That is until she recently gave it to her brother who was in the bath tub. Let's just say she has nothing to text on anymore. I'm looking forward to babysitting these two soon!

Last but definitely not least, this is Oliver John. I call him O. He's the newest edition to my heart. His mom is my cousin Elizabeth. He hasn't called me anything just yet considering that he's only a week old, but I'm hoping "Auntie Jenny" follows ma-ma & da-da. And I haven't met him yet (because he lives in Oklahoma), but I already love him. I'm looking forward to snuggling with him very soon!
