The narrator's description of the tension caused by the eldest aunt at family gatherings really brings the situation to life. I like how the tale demonstrates the family members, specifically the narrator and their dad, endeavoring to comprehend the aunt's perspective, even though her sternness sometimes spoils the enjoyment. It's good to see how the family experiences what gatherings could be like without the aunt's controlling attitude, everyone able to unwind and concentrate on building relationships. Its themes of understanding, patience and adapting within families are easy to relate to.

Yeah, I tried to give a glimpse into what the gathering would be like when the aunt isn't around and I'm glad you got that. Thanks for your impressive feedback.
