Being Uncle Ichael

Uncle Ichael!

I love those words from my 3 year old nephew, Shoobie. I cannot wait to hear what my six week old niece, Izzy will say when she starts to speak.


I can't hide the pride I feel from being an uncle. Much less an uncle that Shoobie...or Russell as he was actually named...flocks to. We tango together and read books from time to time. He's a shining star in the dark night. And truly spoiled, I'm afraid. I am looking forward to the same bond with Isabel that I have already established with the Shoobster.


And then some. My brother, Joey, and his wife are expecting their first child around August 10. Another boy. Julien Joaquin. My uncle duties are increasing, but that's no problem for me! I love it and cherish the bonds.
