Do you keep in touch with relatives or is it just weddings and funerals?

Just received this in a message which I think is true. Easy Spanish for practice (Mitzy please note) I think it's really nice.

DICEN QUE LOS PRIMOS......SON LOS PRIMEROS
AMIGOS EN TU VIDA...SON NUESTROS AMIGOS DE LA NIÑEZ, NADIE MÁS PODRÁ ENTENDER LO
LOCO DE TU FAMILIA COMO LOS PRIMOS....AÚN CUANDO TARDES EN VERLOS Y HABLAR CON
ELLOS, SIEMPRE ESTÁN CONTIGO Y EN TU CORAZÓN.

I have a couple of cousins who I may not see for years but we slot right back in as if it were only last week.

I have got so many, that there some that I cant stand, others that I get on with on a "how ya doin" basis, others that I would make a bit of an effort to see them, others that I would make a big effort to see them, and the ones that I would not want to be without.
