My brother had his first child last week.
A girl.
It's hard to wrap my mind around the fact that my little brother is a dad. Not because I don't think he'll be a good Dad-- I know he will be. It's just... my little brother is a dad
I was in the waiting room of the hospital when she was born. My brother sent me a text that said "she looks like she's going to have a sense of humor" with like, 30 exclamation points. I thought it was an odd thing to say and so I laughed about it.
Then, I saw her. And it I totally got it.
She had this sweet little face, but the look on it was like "You have NO IDEA what you're in for with The Funny I'm going to bring to this family, guys."
I instantly fell in love with her. (And quite possibly instantly ached for another one of my own. Why, babies, WHY do you do that to me?) I look forward to watching her grow and getting to know her. And you better believe I'm going to steal her as often as possible.
I can't help but wonder about one thing... How long until SHE hates my camera?









Congratulations Auntie Y!
