Day 19

My Siblings. 

I thank God (and my parents) for blessing me with the sometimes difficult 

task of being the oldest of five kids.

Caitlin Rose

Being one year apart has been a blessing and a curse for Cat Lynn and I.

When we were younger, we fought A LOT.

We couldn't even share the same bedroom throughout 

high school, because we fought so much.

Then, we both grew up a little. We still have our arguments and 

I still annoy her quite a bit, but in many ways she's a better "older sibling"

than I am. I mean, she didn't get in trouble NEARLY as much as I did growing up!

Caitlin is one of the best people I know, and I 

know she will always be there for me. 

Jessica Jennie

Jeska is one of the most stubborn, loyal, and honest people I know. 

She doesn't let anyone push her around and she is rarely afraid to speak her mind.

I admire those traits in her, because they are rare in a person. She and I have
butted heads over many things in the past, and I know we will in the future too.

But I also know that no matter how many fights we get in,

she will still be there when I want someone to watch Glee or Disney movies with.

Seth Howard

The only boy with four sisters. How he's managed, I will never know.

Always the jokester, Seth will do anything to get a laugh or a smile.

A lot of the time he's not that funny. He gets that from my dad.

But he has been known to completely change my mood with a simple

joke or crazy story from school. He tries to put up a tough macho

persona, but when he plays video games with Abby, or hugs me

when I come home from school, I can tell that he's really

just a big softie at heart.

Abby Bernice

My parents like to remind me that my youngest sister and I

are exactly alike whenever she goes crazy and starts freaking out

over the newest "Merlin" episode or the latest dragon book she read.

And as much as I deny it to them, I know that they're right.

Only, she has the energy of about ten of me.

She is unique, smart, curious, and a little crazy.

But that makes her Abby, and I hope she never, ever changes.
