Visiting with Family

Jonah 4

While I was in LA, I was able to visit with my uncle Joel, his wife (my aunt) Kristen, and their newborn son (my cousin) Jonah. Joel is a carpenter/designer and is working on some new home in Pasadena. Kristen is a real estate agent. Jonah is a baby. Joel is only 39; I'm 31. I'm closer to age to my uncle than my uncle is to my father (they're brothers). My dad was the first born (1951) and Joel was the last born (of 7 siblings; 1968).

It was good seeing them, and I try to see them every time I'm in LA, which has become once a year. It was neat seeing Joel as a new father. Having a newborn son brought out more silliness in him than I'm used to seeing in him. It was cool to see.
