The girls adore their Aunt Paula. She (and Aunt Janet) were the ones who came after both girls were born, to meet them and give Don and I support. I think the bond happened in those first days. Aunt Paula always gives the girls her full presence when she sees them. That could look like hugs, cuddles, reading or games. Besides having raised four kids, Tia Paula has been a K teacher for many years so being with children in a kind, loving, present manner comes natural for her. The girls get to relish in that energy plus more since she is their aunt and never seems to tire of them.
The girls just plain love their Aunt Paula.
Aunt Paula came for an overnight visit this week. That meant staying up late, a long hike, reading lots of books and just enjoying our time with her.
We only wished we lived closer to each other so we could visit more often.
