Holland Cousins

Holland Cousins, 1983

This picture is for Kim. I was reading some "old" posts recently and in one of them, Kim requested that someone post a picture of the "Original Eight" that was taken in 1983. This is not the one she requested but was taken at the same time. The one she wanted was of the Eight acting "silly". I have not found it but I will and I will post it when I do. I think this one shows eight cuties. It doesn't seem possible that all but one of these cousins are now parents themselves---Keith being a father in waiting!!! His little boy should make his debut any day now. (Andrea's little girl is almost the exact age Andrea was in this picture.) Neither does it seem possible that the grandparents are now 80 and almost 84. Where have the years gone and how did they go so quickly?

All the more reason for making lot of memories. Cherish those in your life who are close to you, friend or family member, and let them know they are in your heart and are important to you. Tell those you love how much they mean to you. Time waits for no one and we must make the most of each occasion. Love with all your heart and you will be rewarded for the giving.

Good night now and enjoy the night sounds!!
