Cousins

Summertime is when my children get to see their cousins. It's one of their favorite parts of the season. And really the only time of year they get to be with them and spend hours and hours playing, being silly and laughing away. Days are spent swimming, eating popsicles, playing make-believe and jumping on the trampoline. Nights are spent listening to stories, staying up late, eating ice cream and watching Disney movies. My children love their cousins and question why they don't get to play with them all the time. And why all the fun has to end with a good-bye. Good question--maybe one day we will be near them.

Miss Vera and Miss Izzy might as well be their cousins. They spent just as much time with them and call each other cousins.
