Sometimes a song gets stuck in my head. This morning it's "All my heart" and "True North" by Twila Paris.
In my spring cleaning, I found a note from her that I got when I was 12. I had written her because I liked her music and it was comforting when my best friend died. She replied with a note and a handwritten message, "since we have the same last name, lets consider ourselves cousins.." How true that eventually became.
In looking for my family, I found out she is one of my cousins, a 7th cousin, distant cousin, (which I have the whole line tracked back to the 1600's) but a cousin none the less.
