Well Yes... I guess it is true that I am an amazing Auntie. This is only made possible by the many amazing kids who call me Auntie Lynda. When you love to do something, it is easy to do. I love spoiling and playing with my nieces and nephews sometimes this is much to the dismay of the parental units of said children. The best part about being an auntie who doesn't have children is that you get to give the kids back after not saying no to them for hours at a time.
Having no children of my own, I do feel that I am the expert on how to raise children. I have many great ideas on how to deal with particular situations. Here is one of them...
If you need to go shopping and are in charge of a toddler, please find a babysitter. If this is not possible, please placate said toddler with gum, candy or whatever that toy on the shelf is they are crying for. This way, if I happen to be shopping near you, I won't be annoyed by all that screaming and sniffling.

LOL! And that is wht when my daughter goes shopping with her Auntie
Lynda she comes home with several toys and sometimes two of the same type of toy, because Auntie Lynda says, "Well, she could not decide which one she wanted!"
Sorry, that above comment is me. Guess I shouldn't brush my teeth while typing! :0)
Spoken like a true 'Auntie'! Gracie is blessed to have you!
You and Carol should write a book...ever thought of that?
I have thought of writing one myself, but I guess it would be fun to write one with Carol.
I can not write a book with Lynda. She spoils kids too much and then spoils them some more. When I discipline Grace in front of her, she gets all sad and looks at me with these puppy eyes, and then gives Grace candy or cheetos behind my back. ;) As Grace said when Lynda gave her a GIANT sucker, "Auntie Lynda, bad girl!" LOL!
No wonder Carol is tired of the discipling. It is much more fun to be the Auntie! It's like grandparenting, you just don't have to wait as long.
Love the BLOG so far Lynda! :-) I wish you were in DC to spoil James as much as you do Gracie! Gracie is a lucky little girl!
I wish I could be around James more too! So, if you and Vinny ever decide to change jobs, Portland is a GREAT place to live. I wouldn't mind it a bit if you moved here!
