Sara's Genealogy: Meeting my 4th cousin from Denmark...Jesper

Mother, Daughter, Sister, Lover

Mother, daughter, sister, lover,

Her needles and pins hold the pieces together,

She'll thread your pearls with her words of wisdom,

In the palm of her hand, your future is there running

Through

Mother, daughter, sister, lover,

There's no perfect choice, as you walk in your future

Be still a child on your bed of eggshell,

Behind your first steps, it's her shadows that cushion

Your fall

All questions will simply beg,

The most innocent replies.

She'll make you a daisy chain

And cry as you walk away.

Meeting my 4th cousin from Denmark...Jesper

Meeting my 4th cousin from Denmark

My cousin from Denmark was offered a opportunity to become an intern at a museum in Elk Horn, Iowa. Fred and I drove up to Elk Horn, Iowa right after the 4th of July. We spend two days up there taking in the sights and Jesper served as our tour guide. We had a good time seeing the Danish villages of Elk Horn and meeting my 4th cousin on our Hans Peter Rasmussen side. I'm directly related to Hans Peter and he is directly related to his sister Karen Marie.
