Soon he'll be a grandpa.
It's freaking weird when you don't see a kid for a while and then do. I see my one set of cousins probably once a year, and ummmmm. In my mind, the 12-year-old is still a little toddler, and the 7-year-old doesn't exist. IT'S A BIT DISCONCERTING.
Haha, I know what you mean. My one cousin lives in India, so I only see him a few times a year and I get a kick out of seeing how much he changes. He's comical. He's so smart, and he's a huge basketball fan and he could probably hold a conversation about basketball with your average adult basketball fan.
I also get a kick out of how his accent is changing now that he's in India (he's lived there for 3, 4 years now?). Before he didn't have an accent at all, but this past Christmas when I was talking to him you could definitely hear a distinct Indian accent. I wonder how long it will take until it sounds like he's a native from India speaking English as if it's his second language.
