(I say "usually" because he only lived with us for a couple of years before joining the military and moving away...and I was pretty young, so I didn't know him that well! :)) I mention his race because it's so beautiful that my parents took him in when it caused such a "raucous"...especially since he had a pregnant girlfriend! I hope I'd do the same!!!...and I am so blessed to have so many siblings - aka close friends! <br />I think I emailed them a long time ago to tell them that I was blogging, but then I only blogged once or twice and forgot about it for quite a while...oops! Don't think they're reading now!...<br />My SIL does read, though, I just found that out Saturday night!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07808091849367216425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-240447238522390484.post-46181245371273240882010-08-31T18:22:37.060-07:002010-08-31T18:22:37.060-07:00haha I guess I should have read your post!haha I guess I should have read your post!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08146718549061898275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-240447238522390484.post-10744846142697745592010-08-31T17:56:20.785-07:002010-08-31T17:56:20.785-07:005 sisters...my best friends ever. 1 brother ( he w...5 sisters...my best friends ever. 1 brother ( he was the first born in my Italian family...need I say more?)All the sisters are devout, practicing Catholics, a fact I'm proud of and my brother is ,well, he's too intelligent for a God.

We talk daily and he named his eldest daughter after me. (I'd have named one after him, but neither of us really like his name.) The older brother goes his own way in life. We see him, but not often enough.<br /><br />I have a half sister I've never met but have spoken to a few times on the phone 9 years ago.<br /><br />I have 2 step brothers I used to be friendly with but now never see.<br /><br />So all that to say 2.

What can I say you inspired me :)<br /><br />Well, the truth of the matter is I am an only child! I always begged for a brother and sister not knowing that my Mom and stepdad did their best to make that happen. I now have to stepbrothers (younger) from my Mom's new husband but they married after I was out of college, but I love those two guys even though we are not too close. I also have two SIL's and two BIL's from my husband's family. They are all totally different and while they are close in some ways, couldn't be different in others ;) Sometimes it blows my mind how siblings act because I am just not just not used to it, but I love every minute of it! I have always wanted a houseful of kids and watching my husband's family really helps me understand what that would look like in our family!<br /><br />I am glad you asked the question - I loved learning about everyone too!<br /><br />By the way, no one in the family knows I blog. I only have one friend that reads my blog and it is because we both started our blogs at the same time and did not know it until a few months later.<br /><br />One last thought, I do have three friends who are like my sisters. I am a part of their families and known as Aunt C. I love having all those nieces and nephews!!Amazing Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03889504637409378757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-240447238522390484.post-50810392705182620072010-08-27T23:30:10.259-07:002010-08-27T23:30:10.259-07:00JBTC, I needed a light, quick post and I also love...JBTC, I needed a light, quick post and I also love getting to know everyone better.

She also thinks that I am close minded on a lot of things... we go around and around about this. :( Someday I may tell them about it, but at this point, I don't have the energy to answer for everything I put on my blog. :)Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02246642466824704112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-240447238522390484.post-37154512161889843732010-08-27T15:38:02.690-07:002010-08-27T15:38:02.690-07:00I have two brothers and three sisters.

When I was really young, I followed my older brother everywhere and wanted to be just like him. As I got older, my younger sister and I were closer, then when I got into high school my oldest sister and I got to know each other better. I'm close to all of my siblings but one now, my older brother - and he's cut off contact for...many reasons...which I don't agree with. <br />Anyway, having siblings is the best thing ever. And the best thing my parents ever did for us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-240447238522390484.post-32900767693437274232010-08-27T15:34:25.214-07:002010-08-27T15:34:25.214-07:00I am the oldest of 3.

I'm 27 (today, actually!), my sister will be 25 in Oct., and my brother turned 22 in July. <br />My sister and I really didn't get along growing up because we are so different. She is melancholic and I am sanguine... so totally opposite! I was always the one that wanted to share clothes and sleep in the same room, but she never wanted to, and I got on her nerves because I talked too much. :) <br />She also had a close relationship with our brother, and the two of them share the same off beat weird sense of humor. I always wanted to be a part of their inside jokes, but several of them were about me... :) <br />I tended to feel like the oddball, and I have always said that if possible I would like to avoid having an odd number of kids so that everyone has a buddy. <br />It's funny how things like that stick with you. :)<br />However, my sister and I are much closer now, and we are friends now which I love! My brother is still in college, and we are in totally different places in life so we aren't close at this point, but I'm hoping that we can be some day.Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02246642466824704112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-240447238522390484.post-23285273342272680742010-08-27T14:48:37.768-07:002010-08-27T14:48:37.768-07:00I'm the youngest of 6...opposite that Sew:) Th...I'm the youngest of 6...opposite that Sew:) There are 4 girls and two boys.
