A WILD CRUISE THROUGH ALL THE MEDIA THAT I CAN GET MY HANDS ON & THEN SOME.

What is it about Family?

My husband's cousins (for those who know him, he does have one in every port) from Washington, DC visited us for brunch today. They brought their adorable midgets ("2 3/4, 5 1/2 and 7 3/4 years old") who we have had the pleasure of meeting 3-4 times in their teensy lives. They walked into the house as if we were their long lost cousins (?!) and gave us each a big bear hug. The saying that "blood is thicker than water" rang true as they knew at their oh-so-young ages that we had special meaning in their lives. Yet we are essentially strangers who piggyback onto each other's stories that go way back.

PIGGYBACK (Prismacolor on paper)

Those genes are powerful stuff when you get right down to it.
