Cousins and Friends

We were at my sister's home this weekend, and the following exchange took place when Joy (5) wanted to take a bath with Sophie Mae (almost 4). 

Joy: Sophie- can I take a bath with you?

Sophie: (thinking about it) Yes. Because we're cousins. And we're friends. We're friend cousins!

I am grateful that my kids have so many friend cousins, and that I do as well. We're really lucky.
