About the Blog

Welcome!
I'm so glad you stopped by!

Hi, I'm Gina!

My blog, Love Auntie, started as a writing project for my niece and has grown into something larger and better than I imagined: a lifestyle blog that focuses on the positive aspects of adulting and aging.

I am a proud Aunt to my biological nieces and nephews, and I’m also an Auntie to other children who are not physically related to me. It’s an honor, and I want to be a part of something greater for them.

I also chose the name Love, Auntie for my blog because not only am I speaking to another generation, I am speaking to anyone who needs encouragement while facing another day. “Auntie” to me is a term of endearment, and although I may not be physically related to you, my reader, we are related by our common struggles, desires, and need for one another as we get older.

My blog is a journal of sorts of my journey as I seek what makes "older" worth celebrating in a world that tends to glorify the "younger."

I can’t change the world. But I can change my world view. And while I’m not a superstar, I do influence others. I want people to know there is good fortune in adulting and aging. I want them to (hopefully) look back on younger years with contentment (doesn’t everyone?) but most importantly, without an insatiable longing to return.

Welcome to my blog. I hope it's a place you will find encouragement and positive words.
