[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you grow up close with your cousins? Are you still close? I come from a big loving family, but in all likelihood we will stop at 2 kids (which I'm pretty sad about). Fortunately, my kids are lucky enough to have an awesome group of similar-aged cousins to whom we're really close. Most of them aren't local, but we vacation with them several times a year, have weekend-long sleepovers, big family get-togethers over the holidays, regular facetime chats, etc. In short, their cousins are their favorite people in the world right now (my kids are 4 and 6, cousins 2 to 10). I like to think think that over the longterm, this big group of extended family can provide the loving, chaotic, support-network that my own siblings provide for me. I wasn't close to my own (much older) cousins growing up, but am interested in hearing stories from people who were how those relationships panned out over time.[/quote] We grew up like this too. Big family and loved visits with our cousins. I think there's only distance now that everyone's got lives and families of their own, which can make things tricky, as there are more obligations and personalities to manage. Not everyone's spouse has as much fun as we do. :D[/quote]
