The COUSINS

It is always so good seeing my son
together with my brothers children.
They adore eachother and feels like siblings.

Today my "little brother" turned 40.
His sweet family is spending
three days away from home.
Enjoying themselves here in Stockholm.

I will now consider stop calling Erik my little brother...

Oh yes, that's good, stopping to say "little brother"...
I normally think,that from the age of fourty you are fully responsible for your decisions in life.
People who are younger often have their problems ;))
I'd love to have a family with many children, too. Mine are the only ones in our family, I've always been said about his fact...

Erik though... the YOUNGEST in my family is the most caring and the most responsable of all of us :)

Noak has eleven cousins (all on my side) besides these two cuties. But all much older.

I guess both you and I Uschi, are imagining a house full of life, family and laughter, right?

YES!! And it's so good, to have children around us which we don't have to "parent" the whole time...
