I have several stories to share from this weekend, and I'll get to them, but right now I just wanted to come here to say that I love my nieces so much, I can barely handle it. My Facebook cover photo is a shot from last summer of me holding Bess, and both of us have the biggest smiles possible on our faces, and every time I see it, I just want to reach into the computer and give her all the hugs. And Lucy and Frankie, too. And Jack! Being an aunt is just the best thing ever. I can't even begin to imagine what a parent's love for their child must feel like, because I never imagined I could love anyone the way I love those little ones. Not so little anymore, though -- Bess is about to turn 1, Lucy will be 9 in March, and Frankie is 5 in April. And they're turning into such fascinating people! I wish Brooklyn and Portland were closer together. I'm glad Jack is here with me <3
