my love for my nephews
i love my nephews so much. i love teaching them things. i teach them things nearly every minute sometimes. you know, maybe just a word that has come up in conversation or in a book. like on friday, the word chattering was in the book. i asked if they knew what it meant. no. so i told them. i taught them new word. and they remembered it. i know because they wanted the book read to them again as soon as it was done. and i taught them that cross is another word for angry.
never before have i wanted kids so much. until 33 i never wanted kids. but jeff, my boyfriend then, did. and i loved him so much and i loved the relationship we had so much, that for the first time in my life i could imagine that having kids could be fun. now of course, it so different. now i want them for the same reasons that unmarried teenage girls want them: so that someone will love me and care about me. actually i guess that's why a lot of people want kids, even if they don't admit it.
