This is me and my friend’s daughter over a decade ago. The one-year-old above is now a loving and caring eleven-year-old who is turning more into a teenager each time I see her, but who never fails to warm my heart. She is the reason I want to have kids. People used to ask, “So, when are you having one?” I’d gesture to Chloe and say, “When this one’s old enough to babysit.” So get ready, Chloe: you owe Auntie Janie at least four years of babysitting. Add to that the years of putting up with your mother and we’ll be even (love you, Shanaynay!).
