I absoluutly love my nieces. They are perfect in my eyes, even though they are 3 and 2, and decided that they are going to get into everything. In my eyes they can do no wrong.
My niece Amber is 3 years old and knows she is a princess. She plays her parents so well, asking one and then if she doesn't recieve the answer she wants she will go to the other parent and ask until she gets the answer she wants. She is a sly little girl; and her vocabulary is phanominal. We were in a store parking lot yesterday afternoon, and their was a flag pole with a flag on it, and she calls to me from the backseat and says, "Look Stina, an American Flag!" I was stunned. I have never know a 3 year old to have the ability to distinguish an American Flag, or any flag for that matter. She is going to grow into a very intelligent woman.
My niece Brooke turns 2 years old on November 13. She is so tiny compared to Amber. She is going to be very petite, just like her mommy. She doesn't really know me all that well yet because I have not really hung around her too much in the past. But she knows me well enough to run to my arms when she sees me which is an awesome feeling considering she used to cry when I held her. But yesterday she was over at my mom's house and she was pointing to the T.V. asking, "What is that?" It was so cute. It was also the first time I had ever heard her speak anything.
My nieces are amazing. When I see them I am able to forget all my other problems and relize that there is still good and pureness in the world; even if it comes in small packages. They both have given me a little bit of the childhood that I never had because they keep me on my toes, as well as making me smile and laugh like I was a little girl with them. So the saying that your kids keep you young is so very true. When the time comes that I have children of my own I know that they will have cousins that are amazing, just like they will be.

Here is a song that loves children too:
I believe that children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
Everybody searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone to fulfill my needs
A lonely place to be
So I learned to depend on me
I decided long ago
Never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I will live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity

Chorus:
Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
And I decided long ago
Never to walk in anyone's shadowsIf I fail, if I succeed
At least I will live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity

Chorus:
Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all

And if by chance, that special place
That you've been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love
