KISSIN' COUSINS

Five years ago I knew only one cousin - on my mother's side. Then in 2011 I met Debbie and her husband, Graham, for the first time. she being one of two daughters of my father's brother. Next came the meeting up with Lindsay, Debbie's sister, and Gerald. (The count has doubled!) They all live in Zims, but travel to South Africa to attend and support children who are very sporting and represent their country. Then suddenly there was Philip calling to say he and Vicky were coming up to meet me and now two weeks ago brother David (pictured) and Thelma popped up (literally, they came to overnight here) and from being an orphan annie I now am surrounded by a whole bunch of kissin' cousins. How wonderful is that?
