Who's your favorite relative, and why?
Mine is definitely my sister (aka Bullwinkle925). She's kind, loyal, loving, considerate, generous, fun, friendly, a great lover of books and liberal. She hates Bush almost as much as I do (which is saying a lot). I envy her ability to make lasting friends so easily. She'll tell you the truth, but be tactful about it. She'll help you any way she can when you need it. She supports me no matter what I do.

It's true we don't have a huge family, but she'd be my favorite relative in any family, even the Osmonds!

:loveya: :pals: :hug:

1. my sister is my favorite relative too
Edited on Tue Aug-30-05 12:28 PM by notadmblnd
though for different reasons. She is fatally blunt.. Hilariously funny and doesn't really give a crap if people like her or not (most often they do). We have been there for each other always. Me through her divorce and suicide attempt and her through the death of my husband. She is my protector. We live together now and I jokingly call her my "bitch". Sometimes I do wonder what other people think about two broads in their 40's setting up housekeeping together.. but hey, it works for us. I love her so much more than she knows.

3. That is so sweet and kind of you. The measure of decent love between
2 souls has been met by the two of you. Good luck on the rest of your lives!!

Hugs!!

4. My younger brother. He is the warmest, kindest, most generous,
most compassionate, least judgmental person I have ever known.
He is a Minister & IMHO a true Christian.

6. My newfound cousins, the Webster ladies!
I have a severely screwed up family life. My mother and I have a weird relationship, and my brother and I no longer speak.

I adore reprehensor, but technically we're not "related" by blood.

Since beginning my genealogy questin earnest back in December of last year, I have dug up the most wonderful new cousins, who are just as into genealogy as I am! One is outside Minneapolis, and one is down the road from us in Georgetown. And one sister-in-law in outside Chicago.

They constantly give me wonderful new stories and information to help me write my family history. I'm glad I found them!
