Cousin Time

Cici* says, "What is this baby cage?"
Henry says, "Welcome to the land of Henry! Feel free to look around, what's mine is yours."

Henry says, "Mama, can we have a slumber party?? I PROMISE I won't keep her up all night!"
Cici says, "Can we? Can we? Can we? PLEEEEEASE!"

Henry says, "We're going on a bear hunt, we're going to catch a big one..."
Cici says, "Seriously. It's like A MILLION DEGREES in here and you are letting him talk about a bear hunt. LET'S GOOOOOO!"**

*Cici will be what I call my beautiful niece around here from now on.

**Sometimes even the closest of cousins disagree about when is the right time to recite children's literature.

These two have been spending lots of time together lately. And by lots I mean more than their normal three days a week. Now we are at 5 a week...plus lots of dinners and weekend time. They laugh at each other and hold hands. They are pure joy and they constantly warm my heart.
