Preparing for unclehood - Real Teens Real Stories Real Life

By Mike

Real Teens Real Stories Real Life

By the time you read this, I’ll probably be an uncle – and it’s scaring me to death. I don’t understand how my older brother could do this to me. Did it ever cross his mind that maybe I’m not ready to be an uncle? And what if I’m not qualified for the job?I mean, I’m little more than a child myself. I’m not sure I’m ready to care for a houseplant, let alone play uncle to a real, live human being. Real Teens Real Stories Real Life

And let us not forget the last time someone entrusted me to hold their child. Have you ever wondered why people always describe babies as bouncing? I don’t, not anymore (sorry Emma).And if you ask me, my older brother has got it easy. He gets to be my new nephew’s father. He’ll see him every day.

It’s virtually guaranteed they’ll hit it off. I, on the other hand, live over 500 miles away and will only get to see him every couple months. Trust me, I’ve tried the long distance relationship thing – it just doesn’t work (sorry Margaret).On top of all this, my two younger brothers are also uncles-to-be. Real Teens Real Stories Real Life

So what if my nephew likes them better? I’m not sure I can handle that type of open competition. They both have Playstation 5. The best I’ve got is a Super Nintendo, and the controller’s buttons stick because I spilled cola on them, like, six years ago.But then again, in this war to win my new nephew’s favour, I guess I do have one secret weapon – my name. This newest member of my family, Tyler Michael, is to be named after me.Surely, this will score me a few points in the best uncle category.

But the name thing will only carry me so far; I’ve got some serious work to do. I have to plan out exactly what type of uncle I will be.I could always be the spoiler. You know that one. At Christmas time, he buys the kid presents that make his parent’s gifts look like tube socks in comparison. Real Teens Real Stories Real Life

But then again, journalists aren’t really known for pulling in the big bucks, so maybe this one’s not for me.I guess I could be the reckless uncle. This popular breed of uncle is easy to spot. He is distinguished by his tendency to swing young children around in circles by their arms, simultaneously delighting the child and horrifying their parents.

But, being that I am a convicted baby-dropper, maybe this one’s not for me either.I guess in the end I’ll just have to be myself, put my best foot forward, offer the tyke my firmest handshake and a polite, “Hello Tyler Michael. I’m your uncle Mike. It’s nice to finally meet you.“Oh, and before I forget, happy birthday.”
Mike, 23, has racked up five months of experience on the uncle job now, and even though the boy is just a few months old, Mike can tell that he’s clearly the kid’s favourite. Real Teens Real Stories Real Life

Aries horoscope love compatibility

HOROSCOPE LOVE COMPATIBILITY BETWEEN ARIES AND ARIES ARIES AND ARIES:   it may be an intense love affair, but neither of the 2 Aries is satisfied with not having the lead. The Aries female objectively tends to dominate. Yet, Aries male too. Therefore there will be a big opposition to be number one, at least during the first days of the relationship. In the bedroom too, both Aries will engage a fierce struggle to dominate the other. The relationship between two Aries may be good though if each has outside interests and/or a career separate from the other. As a matter of a fact, when their energies are not always in the same room and when each partner can satisfy the natural Aries’ will to dominate, the relationship between two Aries is intensely passionate and less destructive. HOROSCOPE LOVE COMPATIBILITY BETWEEN ARIES AND TAURUS ARIES AND TAURUS:   That’s a difficult match. Taurus likes to stay at home, is possessive and jealous, characteristics highly conflicting with Aries’...

Purebred Dogs - What, me resemble my dog?

Purebred Dogs - What, me resemble my dog?  More than meets the eye…. We’ve all seen those articles that infer that a dog owner begins to take on the outward appearance of their dog. I for one, feel I have little physically in common with my dog (a KBT). I’m sure you would agree this premise does not have enough documentation! Certainly I did not choose Maggie because she would resemble me! People own dogs for different reasons and in an earlier article I dealt with choosing your pet based on exercise time, training time, home alone time, grooming time, and physical attributes. Now I’d like to look at the less objective reasons for dog ownership. Are dog owners of the same breed similar? Do you fit the profile of other owners for your breed? Check How dogs and their Owner’s Personalities are Similar where significant research is posted on the similarities among owners of same breeds as compared to other dog breed owners. This site is worth a visit if you own, or if you are...
