Cousins Week -

My kids are very blessed. They have 27 cousins, and almost 31. Just give it a couple of months - those numbers are always growing.

Do you know how fun it is to have lots of cousins?

My kids would rather play with their cousins than do just about anything else.

Plus, without cousins, there'd be no kissing cousins. That'd be a shame.

Today I give you

These three darlings are a fun bunch of sisters. They are smart, I tell you what, and fun, to boot. There is The Great One, a world traveler with great taste in music, who is almost thirteen. She is on the right. Then there is The Bear, in the middle both in this picture and in her family. This girl has an eye for art. She's turning 11 this year. And then, Magoo, newly 9. She is our family champion in chicken wrangling. You should have seen her catch them, one after another, last winter. Just for fun. (since I'm secretly afraid of our chickens even though I feed them every day, I was obviously impressed)

We love you, girls!
