Sunday at Nanny's

1st August.............
The month begins with 2 birthday's in the family. My cousin sis Sharon & my favorite aunty, Maria.(That's her feeding Aisha the cake :-)
Not being partial or anything here bit I think we've been in attendance for my aunt's birthday pretty much regularly over the past few years. I haven't been for my cousin's birthday half the times that I have attended Maria aunty's birthday parties.

My cousin is important but a visit to my aunt is sort of a package deal............Not only do we get to eat the world's best Coconut cake & I get to meet my Nanny too :-)

What makes every trip to Maria Aunty's place even more inviting is the fact that Aisha gets to spend as much time with her Great Grand mother...my nanny :-) .....never miss an opportunity to capture these priceless moments.....see the affection....

This blog which reads, "Sunday at Nanny's" is not dedicated to my nanny but more to my aunt Maria who makes this bonding with my nana (as I fondly call her) possible.

I love my nana......I love my Maria aunty too :-)

Over the years she has become more of a friend than an aunt to me & I believe I am more of a friend to her rather than her neice.....so..it's mutual.

I must mention Woman Power here........my aunt is married to my Maternal Uncle. I am very fond of my P2 Mama :-) but Maria aunty gets a little more affection.... (ahem....don't know what P2 mama will say, but I'm sure he knows it)

Well.....yeah....the family has seen a lot of ups & downs....fights & arguments......kissing & making up....love & apologies......so the relationship has evolved. We've gone through really tough times but we managed to stand by each other in times when we had to. Maria aunty made it possible.

If I have to live my life by an example of how you stand by your family at all times......Maria aunty has to be one exemplary example after my Mother.

I love you Maria Aunty & I truly do and I wish I have you around for many many years to come......
because, I believe that Life will be very very different if I wake up to know that my parents are not around.......& I feel the same about you too.
