Yesterday, I was sent pictures of my newest niece. I started not to post the pictures because to the uninitiated ultrasound snapshots can look rather strange. Then, I decided that I don’t really care… so ppphhtttt…
Here’s the first ever photo of Ms Reagan Lynn.
Female children in my family are rare in this generation so this is a bit of a big deal. Of course, everyone is happy to point out that they would have been just as excited about yet another boy. Me? I say, whatever… I wouldn’t. I am an unrepentant cool uncle.
Her mother (whose gooey bits also appear in the picture) is, I’m sure, frightened that I have already promised to teach Ms Reagan all kinds of “tomboy” things like how to clean fish.. and deer; how to drive a truck and the ever important redneck life skill of finding high things and spitting off of them without getting any on your chin… (though probably without the tobacco… I was mostly joking about that).
To her honestly and rightfully horrified mother I send all of my love and a promise to have Ms Reagan show her all of the neat things her Uncle teaches her.
So what have you taught her so far? Can we see pictures? Some of the skills mentioned are skills all children should be taught.
