My Girl Turned 19

My girl turned 19. Where does the time go? Cass is my oldest niece and is very special to me. When she was younger, she would come to grandma and grandpa any time that I came home for the weekend. We would do everything together. I remember putting makeup on her at 2 years old. When she was little, we used to take bubble baths in the jacuzzi tub by candle light and talk. She would sleep with me and kick me out of the bed. I would have talks with her at length about life and boys and the likes.

One time when the flu went thru the house, she woke up in the middle of the night and puked before she could get out of bed, being the good aunt, I caught it in my hands. I would do anything for her.

I'm so very proud of her. She is a good and kind person. She's in school to become a nurse, the first in her family to go to college. I want the best for her.

Happy Birthday, Cass! I love you.

You are a super duper awesome aunt to catch puke in your hands. I am in awe! In fact, I bow down!
