Help required

My girls need help.

Here is the problem: Two little girls(age 8 and 10) are arriving in a new country.

In their home country they have one Grandmother, and two uncle and aunties and less than five cousins.

In this new country they have: One Great Grandmother, Grandpa Canada, Nana Canada, Auntie Lisa, Cousin Josh, Cousin Dylan, Auntie Barb, Cousin Sadie, Auntie Maureen, Uncle Nick, Auntie Angie, Auntie Pat, Uncle John, Auntie Shirley, Auntie Linda, Uncle Rob, Auntie Joan, Uncle Dan, Uncle Jack, Auntie Darlene, Auntie Sharon, Uncle Lionel, Uncle Hal, and that is before we start on the cousins, first cousins, second cousins, extra cousins and other cousins.

This seems a bit scary to me. Here is my solution.
If you have time would you make up a family tree of your family - with names, ages and interests and send it back to me at dbernhardsen@shaw.ca If possible send pictures. I will combine it all into a walking around directory for the girls. They are practicing now to remember who belongs to who but this will not only help them while there are here but should be a great keep-sake when they return.

Thanks for your help - We have four really excited Aussies coming this way.
