Family Ties

We once again traveled to NJ yesterday for my husband's uncle's funeral. The trip was much smoother since our visit last Monday. It's was very nice meeting even more new family members. My kids were very good through it all. It was their first funeral, and they handled it very well. Even though my kids and I didn't ever meet this uncle, we still cried a little. I'm glad we did this together because it brought us even closer. Also, my kids getting to meet more of their family was wonderful. They even got to have some fun during the wake dancing to music with their cousins. Family is so important indeed. How are some ways you get to feel closer with your family?

There is no problem with the family and relatives. But then, it started to fall apart when inheritance became an issue.
