Today I met with a fresh-faced first grader who has a warm personality and big blue eyes. As she told me about her family, she mentioned a relative who sounded important to her. Breaking into a smile, she said, "I have the cutest little cousin! He gets in trouble in pre-school because he falls out of his chair and can't sit still. He loves pickles and going to my grandma's farm." "I can tell you love him a lot," I said. "What's your cousin's name?" Shrugging her shoulders, the little girl said, "I don't know his name, so I just call him Nephew." Hmmmm.....what an unusual name for her favorite little COUSIN!
