Cousins are arguably one of the best relative relationships.
When they’re close in age, the relationships can feel similar to having brothers and sisters. Being that you are often raised in separate households, you don’t have to share the everyday struggles or annoyances in life…henceforth, it’s a great time when you do finally link up! Cousins, unlike the 1989 film, can’t be swapped out. They’re a part of your family forever and a pivotal piece in keeping the family reunions lit every year.
July 24th has been officially dubbed ‘National Cousins Day‘ to celebrate the beloved lifelong relationships that grow among cousins.
