It's A Boy!!!

on Thursday, August 03, 2006

Found out last night that my sister is going to have a baby boy. Think she's slightly disappointed cause she had all these interesting girl names ready; "Delana Joy" being the most noteworthy.

I suppose this is good for me cause now I'll have 2 nieces (from my brother) and 1 nephew. Variety is always good, isn't it?

I'm torn. Should I call myself "Ah Yee" or "Lai Yee" or "Aunty"??? Mum says I should be called the first, which literally means aunt from the mother's side. I prefer the second, as it sounds younger (and more fun?). Problem is, it means youngest aunt, which technically is incorrect because I'm my sister's only sister. Mum doesn't like the third as she says it's too impersonal. I liked it initially but then realised that I'd be called "Aunty Anne" - too strong an association with pretzel!
