Oh my fucking god, YES PLEASE. *acquires Nautical Hat for niece-watching and funny-face-making duties*Alternatively, if someone from the military decides to get pedantic: Citizen Solifuge.
No way! They'll have to lead a Mutiny before I give up title. My new and also unquestionably best familial title ever.Apparently someone out there is trying to shanghai "ommer", if google is anything to go by.
Though so long as you're not the one doing the maintenance work, you mostly just make funny noises and faces at it for a few years, maybe dangle shiny things in front of 'em. Not much to it.
I'm already my brother and sister-in-law's go to pet-sitter, and the expecting parents themselves said I'm getting stuck babysitting sooner or later.
How does one Sit a Baby, and still be a fun cool Captain Nommer or whatever for my wee niece? Do I get them hooked on good books and classy indie games, and give them chocolate and let them stay up late and watch scary movies and stuff?
This new responsibility is exciting and terrifying!
