As I was reading in Chapter six I found it interesting when another lady, who was Ekwefi's friend, called Ekwefi's daughter my daughter. At the time I found it very interesting and quite odd. Why would you call someone elses child my daughter unless you adopted them? It was unusual for me to hear that. About a week ago my oldest sister had her baby girl and now I'm an aunt. After spending a day with them I've found it not so odd after all. My brother in-law's family is crazy about the new baby and it's funny, when they came over they all asked something like where's my daughter, how is my daughter. His family is really close nit and from spending a day with my sister, my brother in-law, and the new baby and having all of his family come over to see her, it's not all that weird to me now. It's just something that you would say to show you cared about that person and that you are really close to them. It's actually pretty cool.
