Before work I am going to head over to my brother's house and visit my two nieces. I will spend an hour before work with them and I am sure they will relieve some of my recent stresses. My 5 year old nephew won't be home as he will be at school, so it will just me my 5 month old niece and my 2 year old niece. They do bring me so much joy, although my 5 month old niece still is not very close with me and I find it so hard making her smile!! She cries if she is away from her mother for a few minutes. Looking forward to seeing the little ones :D

Enjoy your visit with your nieces don't be too upset with the little one. Most babies aren't too keen on being away from mom when they are that young. Pretty soon she'll be smiling when you come to visit

I look forward to that. I remember my other niece and nephew used to be attached to me even at 5 months so it seems harder to form a bond with the new one as she is extra attached to her mother right now LOL

@gudheart,Moments spent with kids are the most pleasant moments we can have.I also love being with kids,kids of my elder brother.He is father of a son and a daughter,both 2 and 3 years old respectively.They seldom cry.Even without their mother they keep playing and forget everything.

You will have fun with the 2 year old niece I bet and if your 5 year old nephew was there I am sure it would be even more fun. Babies sometimes only want their momas.

Their innocence specially in questioning us is so enjoyable , isn't it ? I two have 2 small nieces and two small grandsons of my sister , and everytime i go to my parents house , they would go there and play . I find them so amusing even just by watching them .

When we are at the kids, our feelings is different. It seems they are stress reliever and we tried to make them laugh if they won't, everything we find ways for the kids. I love kids especially those amiable.

I think she sees her mother as her source of food so always looks for her!!

I spend Friday's looking after Baby Niece {not so much a baby now as she's nearly fourteen months!} with my MiL, and it is such a fabulous day. Little children just make the whole world so much brighter. :)

kids can be our stress-relievers and at the same time stressors, especially those who cry and get tantrums most of the time. watching my son (24 yrs ago) asleep and smelling this (baby's) breath was also my stress reliever

Those moments of when they are happy outweighs the moments that they cause tantrums :D

I also do the same thing. I felt stress-free once I talked to my little niece every morning.

It does help as they are so funny at times that it is impossible for us not to smile :D
