be a cool aunt

I have two nephews that I don’t get to see much since I’m not living in my home country. The oldest one was born one year (and some) before I left, the other was born while I was here… so I get to see them one or two weeks per year, which is not much.
And I’m not great with kids … but still, I hope someday to get closer to them, and that they see me at least as a cool aunt :) (actually, I want to be their favorite aunt! but if I’m not there I can’t ask that much!)
