Cousins, Cousins, Everywhere

T's cousins annually spend a week together at the ocean. That's one family of five brothers and one sister and all their spouses and kids. They come from MA (2), CA (1), NH (1), ME (1) and Cambodia. Since T spent summers with these cousins, he is always invited too. Yesterday was our day with them.

Shimon is a fabulous twelve year old who has lived all over the world, currently in Cambodia. He is relaxed with adults, quick witted, funny, entertaining, self-contained, patient with his six year old sister. He tried to teach me some contortionist skills.

Ruby is his younger sister who deserves rave reviews as well. She is the six year old version of her brother, able to spend all day with grown-ups without whining. She's gregarious and engaging and one hundred percent six year old with no pretentions. WHAT GREAT PARENTS THESE TWO HAVE!
