Do you have an aunt? Then you know what kind of people they are. Aunts always have a finger in every pie. Especially they take care about their nieces and nephews. They should know when they break out in pimples, what name of their boyfriends or girlfriends are, smoke they or not. No one important event like purchase of new car or house can happen without their participation.
As usual there are two typical kinds of aunts. The first ones, when they are on the parents' side. They are like your parents' spies. They watch you and tell everything to your parents. The second ones, when they take children's side. Usually it is the youngest sisters of your mother or father. They are democratic and much closer to children. And of course, there are aunts who don't care about the family. They live their own life. But such cases are too rare. And what kind of person your aunt is?
As for mine, she was the best one; by the way, her name is Helen. She was my baby sitter, but I will say about it a little bit later. She was the second kind of aunts I have written before. She liked to indulge me. She always purchased to me sweets and toys. My room looked like toy market. And each of my friends even envied me about that. I had fluffy toys, dolls, teddy bears and so on. There was an uncountable number of it.
Once upon a time I got a task at school. A teacher asked to bring something to a school fair for charity fundraising. I thought for a very long time what to bring for purchasing. I had several ideas, but the last one was the best. I decided to bring all my toys and dolls to the fair. My decision surprised all my relatives especially Helen, because it were all her presents. But she didn't mind. On the contrary, she was very proud of me that I made a sacrifice of my favorite toys. It was my first own decision. I just left my favorite teddy bear. I couldn't fall asleep without him. My goods were the most popular at the school fair. I have sold everything I brought with me. And I earned as much money as nobody did. And as a result, the teacher hung my photo on the wall of fame and she said that I had a penchant for business.
