My Niece, Gigi (Giselle)

As late fall is approaching, I'm anticipating a new addition into the family :-) My first and only niece (so far) will be entering into the world sometime in the first week of December. This will be my only brother's first child, who he's having with the love of his life of four years. It hasn't hit me yet that I'm going to become an aunt and that I'm going to be partly responsible for teaching and rearing another, walking, breathing, human being. Will I be good at this or will I be terrible? What will I show or teach her? How will she perceive me when she grows and continues to develop? There are so many things that are going through  my mind at this time of year. Though I'll be 25 in a couple of months, I feel like there's still so much that I have to learn myself. One thing is for sure, is that I'll spoil her rotten :-) Secondly, I'll make sure that she get's exposed to science and nature (I promise not to torture her too badly). God is the creator of all, thus why not study the Creator's work through science (Her first lesson!...okay, third.)? Lastly, I want to show her to follow her own dreams; nobody else's. I guess as her future aunt, just like any normal human being, I want her to grow into a happy, healthy, and confident human being, no matter path she chooses for herself in years to come. I know for a fact that I'm one of her biggest fans!

Pictures coming soon :-)
