I came up with this topic cause I really miss my siblings these days. Its almost two months that I didnt get to see them and laugh with them so I always think about them now. There are four in my family, I have two older sister and a younger brother. The eldest is single and she's really thrifty. She always spends wisely. We also like the idea that she is still single cause she gives us some money if we need it. lol
My second sister is the one I always turn to when I have some problems. She's really funny and she cracks the corniest jokes. She has a beautiful voice. She also likes to bake just like me. We have the same interest when it comes to earrings.
My younger brother is vain about pets. He has a son now, a very cure son. Good thing the baby got his looks from his mother. lol My brother and I always fought when we were still young. Now that we are older and married, he is the one whom I always laugh with when we discuss things about being married. I love my sister and my brothers. They are all important to me.
Can you share something about your siblings? What are they like? Do you always get together with them?

I have a brother and a sister. My brother is eleven years older than me. He is a wonderful person. He loves writing and karate. He even studied with a student of Bruce Lee's. My sister is seven years older than me. She is also wonderful. She has an amazing singing voice. She works from home and does a lot of work on the computer. We all see each other once or twice a year. It is more difficult to see my brother because he lives far away. I am proud to have both of them as my siblings.

You are the youngest in your family. They said that the youngest in the family always gets the favor from all the family members. Is that true?
I though it was such a long time that I havent seen my siblings. Not seeing them for a month is like forever to me but it in your case, you only get to see them once or twice a year. That really tough. I think you miss them a lot.

I have a brother and a sister. My sister is a nurse who is working in one of the main cities of my country. My brother is studying in 12th grade this year. He is staying with my parents. None of my siblings are not with me and I miss them. But, it is normal for me to be away from them and I can't expect them to be with me always. I am married and moved to a different city with my husband. I look forward for holidays when I can be with my family.

Me too. When I moved to my husband's hometown, I get to see them rarely. I also look forward for birthdays and such cause I know that I can go home. Actually, my sister is celebrating her birthday next month and I am really looking forward to celebrate her birthday. My hometown is 5 hours away from the city so I get to sacrifice a lot of time just to be with them.

Hi. There are also four in my family. I have two elder sisters and a elder brother, all of whom treat me as a dear little sister. I've always been far away from home pursuing further education and don't have much time to get together with them except on holidays. My two elder sisters got married already and both have kids whom I love very much. I'm now living together with my brother who asked me to move into his house so that he can take care of me. I really miss them greatly, but I call them frequently to chat.

I think if you are the youngest in the family all the attention that your parents and siblings are always there for you. My brother had the same attention and he gets to have all he wants. My siblings and I are all having a very good relationship with each other. I just love them.

hi p3ks626,
Like you we are 6 in the family. My parents, my eldest brother, eldest sister, me and the youngest. I missed it when everything is still ok with us. We are always complete and happy. But things went wrong when my eldest brother and my parents got a disagreement on something. My brother stepped out in the family and never returned for a long period of time. He came back again when he has already a gf and he wanted to married her. He asked for our help in his marriage. My parents forgive him and answer the expenses on his wedding. We are very happy that time when my brother married. Again, we became complete. But after his wedding, he moved far away from us and up to now we don't have any communication with him. We contacted him before but he seems very cold and we were surprised to know he is angry with us. I think it is about money matters. After that, my elder sister married the next year. I am so happy for her. She has been a very good sister to me and to our youngest sister. I am happy that I almost thought she will never marry at all but now she already have one baby. As of now, we are just 4 in the house. My parents, me and my youngest sister. I and my youngest sister is ok. We sometimes fight but not that worse when we were still kids. My youngest sister is helpful but sometimes have tantrums but so far we are ok.

Sorry to hear the problems about your brother. I hope one day he will come back and get reconciled with you so you can all be together again. Maybe there was just a misunderstanding that's needs serious talking. Anyway, at least your sisters are still there and so are your parents.

i have 3 brothers but i'm the oldest.rigth now i'm 17..my other brother is 15 and the twins is 13.ya,we do fight a lot and sometimes they will be screaming,wrestling and shouting going on in the house.they also annoys me sometime but i do loved them.i cried when my twin brothers went to boarding school.it's just hard to accept that they will go there at the age of 13.although the look matured but they are still 'babies' to me.they are really cheerful.they have different personality u know.one is a little bit shy and the other is really into sport.my 15 year old brother was different than us.he is a little bit darker.all 3 of us look like a chinese when we were babies.but he is more to indian.but now we still tease him...despite all the differences.we are happy siblings..

Its sometimes fun to have fights with our siblings but not to the extent of having grudges. I also had some misunderstandings with my sisters but its not something that's really bad. I dont get to have arguments with them now cause we are far away from each other. We also dont fight anymore cause everytime we see each other, we always talk about how much we miss each others company.

I think you really have a close family tie. We are also close to each other. I must admit though that we also have misunderstanding but we dont sacrifice the good times just because there are bad times. I do hope your brothers are okay while they are in the army.
