A 28 yr old called me an aunty

[TLK]

@njgal

My cousins friend to be exact.

I am mother of two…Most 2, 3, 6, 9, even 12 and 15 year olds call me aunty or Khala. No big deal.

I am also known as Appa and Appi to most people in family and Baji and Bhabhi to some. Not a big deal either.

So got me thinking…

So what defines an aunty - is it when you do aunty like things like spend time in the kitchen, scrubbing pot and pans at desi parties. Is it when you are 30 or above? Is when your waist circumfrance is more than 32 inches?

What makes a desi woman an aunty?

if you are the sister of my mother, even if you are younger than me, you are my aunty … right?
