What are you most looking forward to this holiday break? I am looking forward to seeing my cousins in Georgia. I only get to see them once or twice a year. Some of them don’t live in Georgia and live in places like Texas and Illinois, but we all get together there. It’s a little hard to get presents for them all because I now have fifteen cousins on my poppaw’s side of the family. I can’t wait to see my cousins during holiday break!
