Moot Thoughts & Musings

We arrived at my Granny's yesterday evening to a Very Full House. All of my mom's six siblings and spouses, and all of my grandma's 28 grandchildren save a couple are here. I'm the oldest cousin, and 6 years younger than my mom's youngest sister. The generations sort of just meld. Especially considering the fact that my youngest cousin is a year and a half younger than Ellis, who, by the way, is in the seventh heaven with all these fun cousins to play with. I'm staying with Youngest Aunt, who feels more like a big sister.

Last night, I saw cousins whom I haven't seen in over ten years. I didn't recognize a few. Some of them tower over me in height. (Okay, most of them. I didn't get the tall genes.)

I'm so excited to be here. The car ride wasn't TOO bad, but no picnic either. But it was totally worth it. It's a blessing to be part of such a wonderful family, and I'm so happy to share in that right now.
