eemos.

eemo is the korean word for aunt -- specifically an aunt that is your mother's sister (your father's sister is called gomo). your mother's female cousins are also your eemos, and your mother's close girlfriends are also often called eemos.

choi boy is super duper lucky to have two very special eemos close by: choi boy's one and only true eemo (my gorgeous and totally awesome sister) and his baby eemo (my adorable and incredibly sweet cousin. fun fact -- she is the youngest grandchild and i am the second oldest grandchild. i grew up babysitting for her, and now she is cb's go-to babysitter. so sweet!). his eemos are so hip and cool and they adore him.

and choi boy?

well, choi boy just loves his eemos and thinks they are the bomb diggity. or is it "diggities" in this case? whatevs, you get the point -- he really loves them!

no, really! he *does* love them. :)


see, he gazes lovingly into their eyes.

or maybe he's gazing lovingly into the cup of frozen yogurt? hmm...jury's out on this one.


he *does* love that froyo.

anyway.

it's so fun to watch cb and his eemos. they are so obsessed in love with their one and only nephew and cb just loves hanging out with them.



i mean, what guy wouldn't love hanging with two beautiful girls that follow you around and totally fawn over you?


and who wouldn't want to play with a grown up that does things with you that make your momma freak out?

i'm pretty sure i was shrieking, "make sure his arms don't pop out of their sockets! that really happens!!"

i'm fairly certain choi boy will be hitting up his eemos in the future and begging them to take him to get a tattoo or get his ears pierced or do some other crazy shenanigans that his momma will freak out about.

oh boy.

i'm just not going to think about that right now.

we'll just stick with frozen yogurt and sunshine for now.

love you, eemos!
