I don't come from a tight knit family, on the contrary. Most time it was just me and my parents. Summers would be spent with the grandparents where my focus were the cousins. With some exceptions I did not have relationships with my aunts and uncles... It's beautiful to read you can just decide to be an awesome aunt. I also fall in the "needs improvement" category for sure. But it's never too late!

Ohhh so I have Aunt Linda to thank for a more prominent Aunt Lori. Who knew?

You offer a beautiful tribute to your aunt. She sounds like a fun, compassionate, thoughtful human. I bet she'll be right there with you gardening today. She may have even been offering you those corn chips (mentioned in your other post). Keep on dancing 💃🏼 and remembering! 💕

I don't know if this means anything to you, but as I was writing this, I saw a monarch butterfly 🦋 outside my window.

Love to you!
