my niece I'll probably never know...

I am sadly not excited that I'm now aunt. I was one of the first people to know about the pregnancy yet will be one of the last people to ever meet her. My brother's ex just had their baby 14 days ago...and sadly my worst fears were confirmed when I received congrats (2 days later) and confirmation that the baby's mom didn't want our family to know. It breaks my heart.

I am thankful that she hasn't removed me yet from FB...but I know it's only a matter of time. I snagged a few pictures of her so at least I will always have those. I hope that she will get wiser with age (she's only 16) and let us really be a part of her family. Gene and I have offered to get her anything she needs (heck when she first found out WE bought her prenatal vitamins and pregnancy books) and still she wants nothing to do with us.

Welcome to the world beautiful Jessa...I really hope we can get to know you...

If I've learned anything from 16 and pregnant, it's that becoming a mom at 16 makes girls go a little crazy at first....but then they eventually their heads on straight. Don't give up hope!!!

I'm sorry that "she" is acting like this. I'm sure she is being pulled in a hundred different directions and is just confused. I pray in time that she will realize that Jessa needs to know both sides of her family.

She is beautiful. I am so sorry that her mother has cut you out of her life but I hope that with time comes wisdom and you have the opportunity to know your niece *hugs*

What a darling baby! I only hope and pray that you will be able to meet her someday.

She's really adorable.

I'm hoping that you get a chance to get to know her. I hope your brothers ex girlfriend gets some sense knocked into her. (Want me to do it?)

That's tough.

My sister and her now ex-husband are going through a nasty custody dispute right now. It's tough because they're my two only nieces and he is most likely to win unfortunately.

I hope that she'll change and want any assistance she can get!
