When I think of the word family, a lot comes to mind. I come from a household that cherishes family; it’s a big priority. We are also a big family that it’s hard to keep track of everybody sometimes. Although we come from the same background we are all so different.
I have two older brothers who are like any older brothers, very protective of me. Even if they annoy me, they have taught me a lot. My older brothers basically raised me, as my parents were always busy working. They both set an example for me to become a person who people can depend on.
Not only do I have older brothers but I also have two younger brothers. They are a handful, but like my older brothers, I helped my younger siblings the same way. In their case I’m the one they run to for help, or just to bug me.
My parents worked a lot when I was younger, but they always made time for us. We didn’t like that they were away a lot of the time, but they always made up for it. For that I will always appreciate my parents, because we’ve been able to keep a strong bond between each other.
