Okay . . . my father’s the youngest of 11. I have a bunch o’ cousins. I stopped counting like five or six years ago at around 45.

Now I get to start re-counting SECOND cousins . . .  
Because one of my cousins is pregnant. She got married around 6 months ago, maybe. Due in May. “We’re thrilled.”

BTW, she’s (so far as I know) doing doctorate work at Princeton.

My only concern is for her health. She’s already somewhat overweight. I worry what this will do to her body, as she’s in her low 20s, I believe.

Still thrilled at the idea, though. My email back to her was something like ":):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)🙂

I couldn’t find a picture of a smilie"

Yay for me . . er, her:)
