Congratulations Ea! I'm an old hand at this, I've been an aunt for 13 years (13?!

) and had a new niece (#7) this summer. But none of my sisters was irresponsible enough to ask me to babysit
Being an aunt is cool, you get only the good stuff and none of the bad
P.S.: did you notice the "related threads" list? Rameau's Nephew is a book that I downloaded a while ago, but haven't read yet. Or re-read, I'm pretty sure I must have done it when I was a student...
