family

Sorry....

but I have to best family.  Debate - over.  Discussion - ended.  The original 7, and now 11 (soon to be 12) of us have the best time with each other.  We talk, joke, laugh, experiment and figure things out together.  We trust each other.  We enjoy each other.  My family means everything to me.

I think my sister Karey is the greatest mom of her generation.  She is creative, energetic, driven, and full of love.  My brother Matt is enthusiastic, funny, dedicated, caring, and patient.  Another brother, Mike, is loyal, hard-working, full of faith, and innovative. My younger sister Kelly is imaginative, thoughtful, tender, and determined.

No doubt, each of us are who we are thanks to our parents, who just happen to possess these characteristics.  No wonder my siblings were so lucky to be born with these inherent attributes.  They're the best.  They're my family.  And I'm blessed for it.
