I have 24 first cousins, some are really great and a few shall be nameless. Growing up in Brooklyn our families all lived near each other and our social life revolved around family events. My older cousins help me grow up as I followed their lead in many ways. I chose the same high school my cousin Louise went to, she was going to be a secretary so that's what I choose too. Over the years we've made different choices, I was the first one to move away from the family in Brooklyn but now so many of us, our children and grandchildren are scattered all over the country but we're all still cousins, even my DH is known as Cousin Gene.
I have mostly girl cousins and 5 of us are so close that we are known as The Granny Cousins. We meet almost every month for lunch at each others homes, sometimes at restaurants and at least once a year go to a show or have a special activity. Last month our special activity was hosting a lunch at a Brooklyn diner for several of our cousins to catch up with each other, the group is getting smaller but we're always there for each other.
Tell us about your cousins. May in Jersey
