You’re wise beyond years and I’ll forever be thankful of that,” Lauryn gushed at the time. “I can’t believe next year you’ll be graduating from high school, and I’ll always be so proud of you. I promise to be there for your every need, even when no one is there. You’re the best aunt my kids could ask for (even though you spoil them rotten).”
