Birthday Special for Aedin

My nephew turns 6 today. All I remember from being six is learning about all the cool stuff like the order of the planets and what a carnivore is opposed to an omnivore. It's great to think about all of the many adventures my nephew and I have had together since his forever. His creative vocabulary and ideas have sparked up my most favorite of all time converstations. He's so smart and has a witty humor. One time my uncle was visiting from Florida and my nephew corrected his English in the most amazing asshole way possible. I'm so relieved that there's someone who I can joke around with that won't take me seriously. I know I'm not supposed to influence words like stupid or idiot but we both love it so much and together we're a team. Computers have also been a huge influence in our lives. I've been sitting with him at the computer for years and it's sad to see him doing it all by himself now. He doesn't need my help and often refuses when I offer.
We are such a team that on his birthday, currently while the party made special for him is going on, me and Aedin remain within the boundries of my room together speaking of Smencils, monsters and Spyro. We both don't care to spend time with anyone else. He's far too advanced for kids his age and I don't care for anyone else either. It's absolutely wonderful.
