From the Aunt's Perspective

My sister works long hours and unfortunately doesn't get to spend long stretches of time with Bubbles. The two however get along fabulously well, and this aunt of Bubbles spoils her whenever she can.

We know that Bubbles absolutely loves hanging out at my parents' place, where my sister also stays. Still, when I read my sister's Facebook status updates written about Bubbles, I felt like I was getting another glimpse into the beautiful world that my baby belongs to.

Here are 2 recent ones that sis has given a go-ahead to post here:

Came home today and became a fellow airplane passenger with my little niece.
She knew how to sit on her (spare car-)seat, fasten her seatbelt, wear a sleep eyemask and
order coffee and tea from a very willing air steward - my dad.
I think my acting skills are improving with her brilliant imagination.

Felt kinda nostalgic-surreal to see my little niece and my dad watching YouTube videos
of old chinese wayang/opera together on his iPhone
- lovely juxtaposition of old and new, young and old :)

Awww, so sweet! Sounds like your parents are also doing a great job taking care of Bubbles, and even letting her play pretend games! :)
