My nephew's are amazing and if I never have my own children I will be happy knowing I was so close to them. The way they were raised when younger, made them almost feel like younger siblings at times.
I have two nephews descended from my sister. They are fairly distinctive in their build, the thick blonde hair, blue eyes and 'big' sumptuous well defined lips, almost like Betty Boop. They are exceptionally bright where they apply themselves, they have their heads screwed on, but have dreams which is great. Despite the youngest having just turned 9 he is a young nine year old, but I'd still apply all of the above to him. He likes to dress up as a pirate or as whatever else his mood takes and he can talk for Britain. He also likes to be in charge of his own wardrobe, the outfits he has put together for himself can be a talking point in themselves.
A houseful of students used to live below my Mum, who held regular parties. I've seen them (primarily female) sat hanging off his every word after meeting him. I've seen him work the room at weddings where he danced all night with the groom, funerals, bithday's.....People are just drawn to him, he has a very knowing way of talking with them. He is very funny, but also very sincere and he cares with abundance and always wants to be able help in some way. The local hobo passed away and he sobbed, his hamster too and it was all the same to him, he just cares so much. He's also capable of diva like tantrums too, but we'll let that one go for now.
People have often commented that he has been here before. I could quite easily believe that!
Below is a section of a drawing of him, taken from a photograph on a visit to the Harry Potter experience. Posed obviously with HP passport and wand (not seen)!
Graphite pencil (B, 2B, 6B) on watercolour paper.
