You are giving her much more than it seems.

When You Give A Girl A Cousin

In This Article:

There will be a lot of things that change throughout your life but one thing is certain; your forever bond with your cousins will never change.

You give her lifelong best friends

Need I say more?

You give her travel buddies

This past summer we went on a road trip from Chicago, Illinois to Clearwater Beach, Florida, and boy am I grateful I had them to keep me company!

You give her siblings

More specifically, for those who are an only child.

You give her endless laughs

You never seem to be surprised at the funniest things that they do! After all, they most definitely learned it from you.

You give her, her biggest fan

One of the best parts about having a close immediate family is being able to be there for most, if not all, of their extracurricular activities and sports events.

You give her partners in crime

Having a cousin means there will always be somebody there who has your back, unconditionally.

You give her somebody to give all of her old clothes too

This means a lot of Victoria's Secret Pink sweatshirts, t-shirts, purses, and anything else they want, really.

You give her somebody who understands

Whether it's our family, friends, or anything in between, if there's anything I understand, it's what you're going through. I've been there, too.

You give her somebody to play with

Growing up you may have even used your baby cousins as your own dolls, with major precaution of course.

You give her memories that last a lifetime

From vacations, sleepovers, and holidays, there is nothing you value more than time spent together.

Having a cousin is the best gift a girl could have. Having four of them is the biggest blessing I could have ever received.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
