I'm an Aunt!

Excellent news! Congratulations to you and the whole family!

I've just been told by my mother that my sister fainted two times after the birth (apparently not a big deal, she had some borderline high blood pressure that fell after giving birth), but that the baby and she are doing fine otherwise. We can hardly wait to meet the little girl!

And yes, we're going to do our best to corrupt her. This might be a challenge, given that my sister has several more tattoos than I do and that my brother in law thinks that graffitti is cool. Nevertheless, we'll do our best!

Be well,

Star

Some how I find it hard to imagine you and Jamie as "steadying" influences.

Congratulations.

Congratulations Star and Jamie.
I am an only child so I will never have any nieces or nephews, but I do remember being spoilt rotten as the only nephew of all my childless aunts and uncles, no doubt you will be similarly generous to your sister's child, and no doubt your sister will fuss over your two offspring as well.
