I love living so close to family, especially when there are little
cousins involved! Unfortunately for me, I never lived super close to my
cousins growing up, which made it harder for my cousins and I to feel
comfortable around each other each time we did spend time together. It
always seemed that just when we had started having fun and had finally
warmed up to each other, it was time to say goodbye. Blaine, on the
other hand, grew up with the majority of his cousins living in the same
town! How nice for him! I am grateful that my kids can also have this
same experience with their cousins. It also helps a ton that they each
have a cousin their own age! Anyway, we had Mercy over to play for the
morning/afternoon and the kids had a blast! However, it is funny how
Cannon and Mercy can be all smiles and play so well together one minute,
and then both be fighting and in tears the next. Oh well, such is the
life of a kid!
