Family

My family is the number one thing in my life. They have always been there for me just like I always plan on being there for them. I'll tell you a little about my family. I live with my mom, dad, my sister Emily, and our two dogs. I also have another sister in Texas. I have the greatest parents in the world. My dad is very outgoing and funny. He can always make me smile. He can sometimes have a temper but it doesn't last long just like mine. My dad did not go to college, he graduated from high school and started his own wholesale florist business on his own. He has owned the same place, Plants Plus since then. My mom is always there for me to talk to and is very sweet. She works with my dad and together they run the business. My parents work very hard and have long days, but they do it for my sister and I. We go on vacation every summer for a week and a couple other smaller trips so these are my parent's time off. We have had some of the greatest experiences on these trips. My sister Emily is a senior here majoring in Elementary Ed and Special Ed. We used to not get along at all when we are younger, but are now pretty close. She is always there when I need advice or someone to complain too. I have two golden retrievers that are the best dogs. Their names are Duncan and Logan. They are a big part of my family and come almost everywhere with us. Now you know a little about my amazing family.

  2. Awwww that is so nice of you to write something like that. I love my parents too my mom is a substitute teacher and kind of like a stay at home mom. She chooses what days she wants to work and doesn't and if me, my sis, or my bro needs her or has something going on she always takes off and helps us. I was really nervous about college so she stayed down here for the first three days of classes to help me get adjusted even though she had nothing to do down here. My dad is a funny guy too, who well has an awful job. He is a computer anaylst and usually works between 90-100 hours a week. He is a very stressed out guy from his job but he deals with it so he can support our whole family. Sometimes when we go on vacations he will pay for them but can't go cause he has to work. It feels awful to leave him behind, but he doesn't want his job to ruin our fun either. My bro is 17 and my sis is 11. My brother is very outgoing and well some times needs to come back down to reality, yet has a kind heart. My sis is a nervous individual who tries her best in everything. My family of course is not like any one elses family cause every family is diferent and unique. So I love my extraordinary family!
