Distant and close relatives come together on Thanksgiving to celebrate the past year and enjoy a meal together.
1. There's the baby cousin who dances on cue.
Mom: "Come out here & do that dance for your auntie" Me: #ThanksgivingWithBlackFamilies
2. The other cousin who borrowed your clothes earlier in the year and never brought them back.
3. The aunt that stalls the entire process.
4. The uncle who always wants to bring up how you're doing in school.
5. The cousin who always makes two plates BEFORE everyone else has eaten one.
6. That one family member who always has to comment on your appearance, not realizing you're grown now and will clap back.
7. There's always a vegetarian...
8. And a picky eater.
9. Delinquent cousins (who always have your back).
10. That one mom who spills her child's tea.
11. The one relative that has to teach everyone how to use technology.
12. The cousin who always wants to play in your room.
13. That cousin who dared to show up.
14. That one person nobody knows.
15. The one aunt that married into money.
16. That one relative who is always a little bit too needy.
17. The grandma who pressures you to get seconds.
18. The relatives who just eat, then leave.
19. The cousins that won't let you live anything down.
And despite all this, you love them all the same.
