My sister took some great pictures of the kids today. She sent several of them to me this evening. They look just as happy in the pictures as they sounded all day and looked every time I took a look at the playing they were doing together. It is amazing how kids can just accept new situations and go on. When we explained to the little ones about my mom and her family they just accepted it without a lot of questions or comments. The questions they did ask made it clear they understood what we had told them, but they were fine with the whole thing. They were just as accepting of all these brand new cousins. All the cousins on this side of the family seemed to take them in just as easily. I'm very glad my kids are able to have this sort of family connection in their lives.
Thinking about this has, of course, brought of my usual feelings of having missed out on the same experience. I don't want to dwell on that now as this is supposed to be both short and perhaps a little more up beat. With that in mind:
