A few more thoughts...

I was thinking in the night how families, though different, are still family. Take my Mother and Father's family. There were ten of us children, ( I am the oldest!) I have through the years watched them and their likes, dislikes, and whatever! I guess I'd better start with myself. I was spoiled no end by everybody, parents, grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, etc. I guess you could call me a "rebel". I had a mind of my own and even though I grew up as a pretty nowmal child, I still had a rebelious nature, or wanted my own "way" and usually got it!!! When my sister Genevieve came along, we had fun together as children but she grew up with a calmer, easier tempered nature. My brother Bob came along and he was adored by everybody!!! But he was not a "leader" either! He, even as a child, pretty much did whatever anyone told him to do and agreeably!!! He was like that all his life!!!! He was very neat, clean, and went about his own business of just "getting along!! Then came my brother Laurence. He was another "rebel"! I think that is why we fought so much, we were two "peas in a pod"! Nobody could tell him what to do!!! But I will go more into details later about some of my siblings doings! My sister Teresa was born, after two boys, so even though she was very sweet and sunny, (always!) she still was very tomboyish and tried to do everything her brothers did, (climb trees, etc .) I've gone halfway with the family and so will stop and get on later, maybe even later today! There is a lot to "tell" on my family!!!!
