Late this afternoon I became an aunt;
at last my sister gave birth to her son.
I'm trying to process, but fear I can't;
I know that this change will be a big one.
Although on the ides of March he was born,
Alexander is now my nephew's name.
He should have been Julius I had sworn.
Alas, my sister did not feel the same.
I just have to wonder who he will be,
as this baby boy grows into a man.
And I wonder what he will learn from me;
I would gladly teach him all that I can.
I simply can't wait to see where he goes,
but it will be far; that is all I know.
Alexander is a lucky fellow to have you as an aunt. You can be his Aunt Awesome!
