Congratulations
Friday, July 04, 2008
Everyone who heard their names mentioned as a potential couple was excited, and today as the news were confirmed the excitement grew and there's a need for celebration. Two of my favorite cousins, both very dear to me, have been engaged..
We were all surprised, he has just finished college and proposed the very day he graduated proving me very wrong in thinking he was a patient guy! I however find his recent impatience very romantic.
They still have a long road till finishing their education and then marriage but I just couldn't keep the news to myself!
Congratulations dears

Wish me luck!

I hope that your cousins will enjoy a long and happy life together.
Cousin marriages used to be fairly common in America, but not so much any more. Probably the reason is that people often go to college far from home, or they move a far distance to take a job.
I can see some advantages to marrying someone you have known your whole life. A childhood friendship that blossoms into an adult romance could result in a very stable and happy marriage. One of my professors knew his wife from the time they first started school at age 6. Although they were not related, they grew up together. They had one of the best marriages I have ever seen. I presume they still do.
