Hi All, So, let's talk about our families. I have a mom, a dad, and an eighteen-year-old sis, Courtney. My sis and I get along really well; she takes me places and we're best pals. Except when we'r not best pals, which is not fun. Lol! But for the majoity of the time, we get along well. My sis is a daddy's girl, and I'm a mama's girl, but we both love our parents a ton! Lol! My dad is responsible for my being somewhat of a tomboy; we wrestled when I was young, and teases me still, getting me "tough for the outside world." My mom is the one responsible for my being affectionate and caring and "a mother" to my friends. Lol. So that's me. What about you? Caitlin
let see, I have two older sisters, one 23 and one 28, and im sorta close to both of them. We have our up and down days but it's all tgood. I also live with both of my parents. Like you kate, dad makes me a tomboy.
Mother Maria {Italian}and no neither of us are Mamma's boys.
well not to the extent that we'er ready to admit it.smile
Younger Brother Alistair..we are very close and this trust allows us to discuss just about anything not that we haven't fallen out but our disagreements never last very long
Cousin. Mharai ..
Nephew. Louis ..
in Italy Giancarlo. Nephew.
Consuela .Niece.
Uncles Callum & Giovanni.
you can imagine with Italians the list goes on and on.smile.
Hehehe yeah my sis is great, always there for me. We just had a wrestling match, lol, which is a rarity, because she's very girlie-girl hehehe. We're kind of opposite in the ways of fashion and all that, but we still get along for the great majority of the time. It's been cool hearin' about your guys' families ... keep it goin'! Caitlin
Mty sis just got me a purse for Christmas, and now my family is saying, "Wow, we have another girlie in teh family!", lol ... it's funny. My sister is constantly trying to girlify me a lot more. Get me into makeup ... "just a bit of lip gloss," she says, lol. Caitlin
Have a mom, a dad, and Matt, my fourteen-year-old brother. We are very similar and we go from fighting a lot to getting along nicely. My nanna and godmother live very close to us so it's like they're part of our family too. And I have a huge extended family on both sides. We're Irish.
Lol extended family! Fun! And your brother's my age lol. So that kind of makes him like me, and you're like my older sister, if you compare my sibling situation with yours. Just thoguth I'd point that out ... no reason ... lol!
Well, my family's pretty big. Loads of cousins, aunts and uncles Etc Etc so let's work down from me and my mum. She's a single mum coping with a bit of a rebel for a daughter in her early twenties, me lol. My dad had two children with his second wife, Russell and Ryan who're now about eighteen and sixteen, then there's my Grandparents. Roy and Bernadette my dad's parents who I haven't seen since I was a toddler and my mum's parents who I see all the time, Elizabeth and Graham. Now we come to all the aunts, uncles and cousins, at least, the ones I know about. The only uncle I know on my dad's side of the family is his brother who's been inside for a stretch, so I'm not really interested in him whatsoever.
Now, there's my mum's brother and sister, Richard and Louise and her three children, Joe, Kezzie and Tegen, there's Auntie Lou's partner, another Richard and his three children, Olivia, Grace and Henry, there's mum's brother Richard's girlfriend Linda, and then we come to the Brooks. They're my Grandad's sister, Kathleen, her children Mandy who's my second cousin who's married to Gavin and they have three children, Rosie, Vicky and James, and Kath's younger daughter, Penny who's married to Keith and Emily, their daughter. Then, there's my Gran's brother Chris and his son, Julian who's also a second cousin, then Julian's brother Paul who lives in Boston, Massachusetts with his wife who's also named Jen, and their three children, Devon, Tatum and Brynne. That's just mum's side. Phew!

I have my parents, 2 younger brothers, and an older sister. My sister has 4 children (3 boys and a girl). My mom is one of 9 siblings, and my dad is 1 of 6 siblings. From that, I have 4 first cousins from Dad's side and at least 25 from Mom's side. Then I have second cousins from that. Lots of relatives. *smiles*

so thats 6 siblings and 14 necies and nephues and a great nephue. and another one on the way! numerous aunts cousins and uncles as well lol! encluding the one who bought me my talking phone!
i'm the youngest.
I had a mom never a dad. Had a Grandpa and Grandma who were my fave. I have Two sisters Lusero 29 & Bernadette 23 and one brother Art 25. We are kind of split but close lol I know it's strange but I'm the oldest and they all come to me now that everyone is gone. I am closer to Bernadette and My sister Lusero is closer to My brother. My sister Bernadette and I have a weird connection that I just can't explain I know when she is in trouble or in need of help. We live a state apart but when she lost her twins I got horribly sick and I called her to see if she was ok. She said yeah and then the next day she called me to tell me she had lost them that's how close we are. I can think of her and she'll call within the day. I don't get along much with my brohter as he's out "finding himself" so I gues till he does I wont know where he is lol. We can be far apart but when one of us needs some thing we all come together. My family changes a lot as i'm a foster mom so I get kids in all the time and I think of them as mine even though they wil move on. I live with my husband of 15 years, my daughter Melody who I adopted and is now 8 and 3 foster kids, two 2 year olds and a 3 year old who I love very much. Oh and Shiska my dog. and I'm 34, umm i think lol.
My mom and I were alone for my childhood. Her brother Jeff though who is 3 years younger than her are real close and his kids craig 16 and mike 21 are my brothers. We also have a gram and gramps who are both 70 and my gram is awesome though she nags.
yet another board being brought back to life. I have an older brother who is twenty, going on twenty-one, and no sisters dammit. lol My dad's parents are no longer alive, and my mom's side lives in south Korea. She hasn;t seen them in years. somewhere around ten cousins over there, and a few aunts and uncles, and my maternal grandparents. My dad is a wisconsin native with two brothers and two sisters, one brother-in-law, and a sister-in-law. Aunt robyn got married this past saturday. *smile*
The sister-in-law is my aunt Kathleen, and the brother-in-law is the groom of last Saturday's wedding, uncle Don.
O, and the unexpected but very welcome addition as of March 30 this year, nearly-4-month-old Richard James Robertson (Robbie Robertson). I'd almost forgotten I'd already posted in this topic, oo, just over 15 months back.
Jen.
I have a 14 year old sister and live with my great aunty and uncle who took us on when our real mum died in 1995. We call them Mum and Dad now. I also have a nan and grandad who Nan is Mum's sister and a couple of uncles who were my real Mum's brothers. I have lots of cousins who are Mum and Dad's grandchildren.
My family is Mom (Annie), her partner (Joanie) and Grandma (El Vera). We all get along well most of the time, but there are times when we fight and I hate it. Mom and Grandma, even when they're talking with each other, are very loud, and they don't even have to be fighting. That's just how they talk. Anyway, Mom's all about education, about teaching me things, everything from simple ideas to complex matters. We talk about anything and everything and sometimes, the love between us can almost be touched. Joanie's more about discipline and practicality. Where Mom would be happy with me speaking correctly or dressing well, Joanie would want me to get a job and get better with my mobility. She also has a fun side though, and got me into all sorts of sports. We love laughing and watching tv together, especially stuff that Mom and Grandma don't like. lol Grandma and I have our own wacky relationship. She's fun, tells great stories and lets me cook with her. She tries to guide me in the best way she can, and though she annoys me at times, she really does everything out of love for me.
My family consists of my parents and my sisters 15-year-old Danielle and five-year-old Kiley. Mom and I r extremely close. She is a huge influence on me, and I don't know what I'd do without her. My dad and I get along sometimes. Danielle and I do not get along at all, since we're totally opposite. Every once in a while, we get along, but our relationship has gotten worse since we've gotten older. Kiley adores me and hates it when I'm at college. We get along fine, since I'm the only sister that takes time to play with her, but she can be a little annoying sometimes. I do have grandparents, great grandparents, one aunt, a few great aunts and uncles, and cousins, but they r too many to name.
I have a mom who has 2 brothers, 5 cousins, a grandma and grandpa who still live and that is all. We are actually all very close and at family gatherings a nice and small group.
I have a mom, (otherwise I wouldn't be hear) a sister, a step-father, and a step-brother who I rarely see because he's with his mom the majority of the time.
