Dear Kid,
Happy Aunt and Uncle Day!
You aren’t one yet, but you have them, so I think we should celebrate.
There are lots of famous aunts and uncles, like Uncle Sam, Uncle Wiggly, Auntie Mame, Aunt Jemima, Uncle Ben, Auntie Anne, Uncle Miltie, Auntie M, and Uncle Fester.
You can Say Uncle or be so surprised you become a Monkey’s Uncle.
I will never forget the day I became an Aunt and hearing some very special voices call me “Aunt” for the first time. (You know who are, you wonderful people.)
I am extremely lucky because I have the best of all possible worlds—I am an aunt and I have aunts and uncles.
To those who are and those who have, Happy Aunt and Uncle Day!
Love, Mom
P.S. Don’t forget that tomorrow is Take Your Pants for a Walk Day. (I did not make that up. I made fun of it, but I didn’t make it up.)
