Happy Birthday

To Helma, my late uncle Billy’s first wife, and mother of my two oldest cousins.

Speaking of cousins, there was some discussion the other day in which one of Sadie’s cousins didn’t realize there were 19 of them in the generation of kids, ranging from the one who will be 35 this year down through Henry, who will be 1.  In my case, both sides combined, living and dead, there were 26.  That is, I had 25 siblings and first cousins.  That I know about.  If the family sometimes sounds big, yeah, it is.
