Sooo... I've been struggling on what to write about. So please forgive me if it seems like I am rambling!

Sometimes I feel pressure to be the perfect or the best Aunt all the time. I worry in the quiet moments as my niece and I are in the car together. Does she think I'm lame ?!  I worry that my nephew will find me boring if I can't keep him entertained.

Like does Teetee have to be "on" all the time?

And what I mean by that is, do I have to be a certain person for them all the time or bring the same amount of energy every time we are together?

The thought of that is exhausting honey! I'm not sure I can keep that up lol!

I love being an Aunt, I love my niece and nephew! They give me life...

To be fair, no matter if you are an Aunt , or mommy, or just a woman trying to just get through the day; you need some quiet time. Even when it's around those you love.

No one ever wants their loved ones to feel like they are bothering you.. or you don't have the time or energy for them.

But sometimes.. just like other woman.. Teetee doesn't want to be bothered lol and I hate even writing that. But it's true. I love me a quiet house.. semi dark room, fan on, Netflix streaming!

Aunts need to recharge too!
