"Only an aunt can gives hugs like a mother, keep secrets like a sister, and share love like a friend."
During the summer, I had the 3rd Annual Aunt Kelly & Nieces Day with Mallory & Morgan. Such a fun tradition the past few years.
This year we started with lunch at a fun pink, girly placed called Silver Spoon. The girls were quite amazed at the light fixtures made out of silver spoons. :)
And then we headed to our local paint-your-own-pottery place. This is when I'm reminded how different my boys are. And how different these two sisters are. I won't name names, but one was done with her painting pretty quick. And I had to keep encouraging the other one to maybe speed up just a little. :)
Both seemed to enjoy picking out the colors and did a wonderful job with their piggy bank masterpieces.
I love all three of my nieces. (Lots of fun outings with 13-year-old niece, Mary Tish, as well. This was the only one I could find that was from the years of digital pictures.) :) Such a special opportunity to have time with just them. Always hopeful that the relationship I have with all three will stay strong.
