Since I was born, Denver has always been the city that my aunt has called home. Although there is quite a bit of distance in between the two of us, we have never let this have a negative impact on our relationship. From the day that I was born, my aunt has always made sure that she has played a major role in my life (and when I say from the day I was born, I mean that literally, because the aunt was in the hospital with my Mom).
In addition to talking on the phone, the Internet has made it really convenient for us to stay in touch with each other. While the majority of our interaction takes place via some kind of electronic (whether it’s a phone or computer), there are times when we get to see each other in person. For example, I visited her in Denver just over two months ago. I actually didn’t tell her I was coming, so when my plane arrived, I got a rental car in Denver and drove to surprise her. She was shocked when she opened her front door, and we had an awesome time together while I was in Denver.
