Oh my sibs. I have three. And they are all amazing and wonderful in their own way. Starting from the top-
Josh. Josh and I have a great relationship. I've always looked at him as my "cool" big brother. Still to this day, he shows me how "cool" he is when we hang out. I love his style, his attitude, and his fun spirit. He lives in the Houston area working as a therapist--following the family footsteps.
Chris. Chris and I have had a roller-coaster relationship throughout the years. Mainly because we're so close in age, we had fights growing up about social situations and which friends we could hang out with. He's only 13 months older than me so we practically were like twins. Did everything together for the first time as kids. He's always been such a wonderful protector of me and I'll always love him for that. Even now, as a married woman, I could call him and he would come down and kick anyone's ass that needed to be kicked. I remember when he was 6 and I was 5, we were getting on the bus to go to school. He had crutches at the time and I was trying to help him get situated before the bus took off. I had a skirt on and the boy behind me lifted my skirt and made a remark. Chris took his crutch and jabbed the kid square in the face haha. Ohhh Chris.
Brooke. My very smart, independent, traveling younger sister. I was just telling my husband last night how smart she must be because she never seems to be in any sort of pickle or bind like I find myself in oh so often! She knows exactly what she wants and she usually gets it. She and I have had an up and down relationship as well through the years, but mainly normal sister stuff. Though she's my younger sister, I've spent years looking up to her and striving to possess some of her qualities. We are completely opposite people but as we grow we are able to see more and more things eye to eye.
Love you all! Ya'll have seen all my goods and all my bads and have loved me unconditionally. There's nothing like having family and close siblings. Oh! I'm getting emotional writing this--(pregnancy hormones??) MMMMMUUUAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!
I have three new siblings!!!
My husband has three siblings as well and I feel so fortunate to have them as my family. Though they did not know me for the first 20 years of my life (definitely a good thing), I have grown close to each of them and truly think of them as my brother and sisters.
Stacie, his older sister, lives further away and I have not had the opportunity to become super close to, but I love her and her 4 daughters and am here for them anytime they need me.
His younger brother,
Tyler, has always felt like a brother to me. From the very beginning, he and I have opened up to each other and have always been close. I like that he shares the same protective quality that my brother Chris has, and makes me feel like a true sister to him. Plus we have the same initials now so how can we not be close!??!?! :) TJS!
And his sweet sister
Amanda. Amanda is much like Brooke in some ways as well. (Maybe there's a pattern here) Very smart, very independent, and very determined. I love her artistic abilities and very much envy her creativity--so much I can learn from her!! I've felt close to Amanda as well from the very beginning. It's been almost 5 years I've spent with this family and I would say I felt a part of the family probably around the 3rd or 4th month of knowing them (ski trip :\ ha) And Amanda is always a joy to talk to,
sing with, and spend some good ole sisterly time with!
Love my Stuckeys!!
