Don't fight the sad feelings, it's part of the grieving process. If you have pictures of the boys parents, make sure they are out where the boys can view them frequently. Reassure them how much their Mommy and Daddy loved them and would want them to be happy. If at all possible, talk to your parents about some counseling for the boys. The counselor can offer a lot of solutions to help them move on with life.

hey,
thats really hard, I think that its okay to feel upset and even cry when you arent around the boys, but when you are arounbd the you need to help keep their minds off of it. Try your hardest to spend one on one time with each of your cousins, especially the nine year old, because most likely he is trying to cope with this loss, as well as staying strong infront of his younger siblings. everyone is probably telling him to be strong and stuff, and he probably thinks that he cant let his emotions go. you should keep an eye out for him, and try your hardest to make sure that he has someone to talk to if he needs help.
i'm sorry for your loss. i hope i helped. good luck!!
