so, how are we related?

So, we partied at Japril's house last night. I put Jae next to Megan and was thinking they were 1st cousins once removed. (I don't know how all that works). So, then I googled it and read it out loud:

Your child and your first cousin's child are second cousins because they share the same common ancestor(s) and that is your Grandparents, your child's Great Grandparents.

You and your cousin's child are first cousins once removed because the both of you are in different generations and have no ancestors in common and the 'once removed' means that they came one generation after you.

Harmony and I just laughed. "Common ancestors." ^.^
