Welcome to the family!

An Open Letter To My Newborn Nephew

Dear Nephew,

You're here! You finally made it. Welcome to our crazy, dysfunctional and loving family. Sorry to be the one to break it to you, but we're a bunch of weirdos. But hey, you will never be bored.

I'm your aunt, which means I'm super fun and you can always come to me if you need anything. I'm here to play with you when you're bored and cheer you up when you are sad. I can love you more than anything in the world, and protect you almost as well as mommy and daddy can.

You're only a few days old right now, so you have no idea what is in store for you. A life of love, laughter, and happiness is what your future holds nephew. Your mommy and daddy love you so much, and they will do anything to give you the best life possible. Yeah, they will be overbearing and protective, but it's because you are the most precious thing to them. Try not to be so hard on them when you are older.

Grammy is a little crazy sometimes, but she means well. Right now she calls you her little poopie, and I don't think she will ever stop. She has a nice set up at her house so if you ever want to give mom and dad a break, grammy will be more than happy to steal you. She is going to spoil the crap out of you, use it to your advantage. Also, grandpa will do whatever you want. Only a few days old and you've already got the family wrapped around your tiny fingers. Go you!

Your uncles are pretty cool. Almost all of them love sports, so you'll have guys to play with when you're older. You guys can ride bikes, play catch, play with cars, and whatever else you want to do. Watch out for Uncle Jeffrey though, he said he is going to make you a 'pimp' one day and we aren't too sure what that means yet.

You can't choose your family, but we're glad you've joined ours.

If you ever want to relax, nap, hang out, or talk, you can always come to me. If you want to go on adventures, walks, play a game, or just want to give mom and dad a day off then you can always count on your aunt.

You are loved very much nephew, and you always will be.

All my love, your favorite aunt.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
