How much you love your nephew and niece?

I have 1 niece and 1 nephew and i stay awfully far from them but i was present on both of their birth and feel the closeness.. As for my niece i am more closer to her for she is from my elder sister and i was a student when she was born and i spent more time with her helping my mom bring her up whilst my sis went to work.. Yes they almost feel like our own because afterall they are the flesh and blood of our own siblings and one always gets exposure in the world of Motherhood when you live with them and care for them.. I love them both and miss them..
