Out of five siblings, I'm the only one without children, meaning I got to be the "fun aunt" who brought sweets, toys, games, and a heap of adoration for my 12 nieces and nephews. There's a favorite photo from the early years where two of my nephews stare at me in delight, one a newborn in my arms and the other not yet 2. That picture takes me back to when all I had to do was pretend to be a dinosaur or read them a picture book, and they thought I was the coolest person around.
