Remember when....

The house is quiet now...
The nieces and nephews gone back home...
I hope their hearts are filled with those kind of memories which come back again and again...
".....oh yes, in the summer we used to go visit my aunt and uncle in the country...
we'd have picnics in the orchard..."
"....and then we would pile into the van and head down to the lake...."
Even the little ones, braving the jump off the wobbly wharf!
I've been there since the day they were all born and now I see them growing up...
It's a rare occasion for them to see each other but time knows no boundary's for cousins...
Getting along like a house on fire!
Chattering and giggling all along the way...
Already making plans for the next time they are together...
