Well, technically I'm not an "aunt", but in Hawaii, it's a sign of respect to call elders "Auntie" or "Uncle". A lot of Jeni's students call her Auntie, but they eventually learn to call their teachers "Miss" or "Mrs." Because of that, I don't have anyone calling me auntie.... until recently! :)
Jeni and I take some girls that were in her class last year to church with us and guess what they call me..... Auntie Jaime!!! Oh my gosh, I love it. The funny part is they call Jeni Ms. Elson and me Auntie Jaime so I think people get really confused when we are all together. This morning when I dropped Jeni off at school, the sisters (they are seven and eight) were getting there at the same time and came and gave me a hug. Then when they left they said, "Bye Auntie Jaime!" in their little Hawaiian accents. Oh, they are just two cute!
