Give me a two year old that you can establish a bit of rapport with any day, but not for too long as I get bored quickly.
Cool, but I wasn't trying to set you up with her. I'll give you a heads up when my nephew is of age.
I have not evaluated her as a person or anything, but it's a rare opportunity to get in on the ground floor. You see, this Florida brother is my only full-blood sibling and someone I have spent more time with than anyone else. I almost went to the birthing, but the logistics didn't quite work out that way.
I also have an older niece で one of my other brothers, and she's my favorite. I remember when I made that distinction. During one spontaneous visit to Mass, we were just sitting around having breakfast at the table, and she was inquisitively interacting as I explained the chemistry behind often encountered substances and their behaviors. She was probably eight at the time, but it was just so pleasing to see that hunger to understand at that age. The infrequent opportunities I've been around other people's children weren't so inspiring. It's been a while since I last spent time with that part of my family because that brother and his wife have spiraled ever so deeper into their religious cult.
