We were working out our extended family tree
with the kids the other day — it was pretty extensive that we ran out of
space on the paper. Along the way, we talked abt China's 1-child policy
and how different their family trees would look.
A day or 2 later, Girl observed, "A child in China would not have any cousins." Nor uncles and aunties.
Having grown up with an amazing extended family, that was a pretty
sobering (lonely) thot. So this CNY, am thankful for all the crazy
uncles, aunties and cousins whom we get to celebrate with each year! Love u all!
