*Good listener- I listen, ask questions when appropriate, don't interrupt. *Good cook (Italian and Hungarian- I can cook chicken parmigiana one night, chicken paprikash the next, and they're both excellent!) *Good seamstress- one of my gifts to nieces when they marry is to to do the alterations on their wedding dresses, and I get asked to alter all the bridesmaids/mother of the bride dresses too. I'm the one aunt allowed in the bridal suite before the wedding! I also made a wedding gown from scratch for my cousin according to her drawing, and lots of christening gowns and little girl holiday dresses. *Good mother- I think I strike the right balance between being involved and caring without "helicoptering"- too much *Big blue eyes- I get lots of compliments on them
