Other than your mom and dad and siblings, your cousins are your first
friends. The kids of your mom and dad’s siblings are still family, even though
they have a different last name.
Before school or church or camp or teams, your cousins are the ones you
first learn how to interact with who isn’t an adult.
Unless living in the same town, only family reunions or holidays brings
cousins back into your life, still you have to send Christmas cards and keep
track of birthdays of almost strangers.
Still there is a special bond with your first friends. Maybe the first
dancing partner or a dirty little secret or a kissing cousin, these folks are
different because they are family.
While other friend’s come and go, cousins are always connected by blood.
