Right now is a very important time for your family relationships, so try to reach out to as many different branches of your family tree as you possibly can. If it's someone's birthday, call them up instead of just sending a card or gift. They would love to hear from you. Don't forget that you provide a necessary and unique contribution to these people's lives. Your insight, charm and humor would be welcome right now, so don't hold back! Take an active role in your extended family.
