A Taste of the Best Thing Next to Jesus











BEING AN AUNT. Best thing next to Jesus. It's hard to imagine how much a father and mother love their own kids because my heart just bursts with love for my nephew Noah who is 4 1/2 and niece Briley who is 3 1/2 months. Noah is the smartest, funniest, sweetest, and most creative kid you ever would meet. It is so precious to me that he is at the age where he really sincerely loves me and wants to spend time with me. Briley is only 3 months but her coos are stealing my heart. She seems to have a more laidback nature than Noah, but only time will tell what her personality will be like! I don't want her to grow up any faster but I am excited for the day when I can play with her like I do Noah. You know, I hate to admit, but I wondered when my sister told me she was having another baby, if I could ever love another child as much as I do Noah. I completely do. There's no way to really explain it, but I do. I hope that I will have the chance to keep showing these two awesome kids God's love and that someday they'll say, "You know our Aunt Carrie? She really loves God a lot!"
