Thank God for Aunts!
This morning we talked about how important aunts are in our lives and just how important those nieces and nephews are to aunties. I found this neat poem that you might want to share with yours!
A Poem for Aunts
Goodness and care, friendship to share
Thoughful advice, all things nice
Talks on the phone, a welcoming home
Kindness and grace, gentle as lace…
That’s what Aunts are made of
Arms bearing gifts, smiles that lift
Seeker of fun, warm as the sun
Valued big sis, someone to miss
Birthday well-wisher, big ice cream disher…
That’s what Aunts are made of
Hugs filled with heart, a fan from the start
Secrets to share, laughs to spare
Words of praise, generous ways
Grown-up best friend, love never ends…
That’s what Aunts are made of

This poem was great! It reminds me of my aunt-in-law. She is nearly 60 years old and has no children of her own. Her nieces and nephews are like her children and their children are her grandchildren. What a beautiful poem…I will definately be passing it along to her!
