Recently a fellow blog stalker asked me why I wanted to be like everyone in my family (#81 about myself). It made me think and write out why I do. I thought I would share that with the world of how great my family is!
Dad: He is SUCH a hard worker! Nothing is too hard for him and nothing really intimidates him, he is a problem solver and just makes things go his way. I like how confident he is.
Mom: If I could be like anyone in the world I would be just like her for every reason, but she is so selfless and just a very caring person, she doesn’t have a mean bone in her body. She has been there for me every time I need her, that stability and reliability in our relationship means a lot to me.
Trent: This guy is incredible! He gets more done in a day than I do in a week. I like how he is a do-it-himself and researches everything he wants to do and does it perfectly. He remodels his house himself and I am amazed at how well he does EVERYTHING!
Heidi: She is the type of person that is always doing something for someone else. She remembers everyone’s favorite treats and usually does something nice when you need it: bad day, hard times, celebrations, or just because. You know all those things you think “That would be nice if I did that…” well she does it. I want to be more like that.
Jamie: Jamie is really good at being the peacemaker and improving herself. My family is very critical and she has been able to remove herself from that and become better at that. I admire that she was able to take something that she didn’t like and do something about it.
Jake: That kid is a genius! He is so smart! He is also really deep, he is able to see meaning and goodness in everything and is very methodical, in a good way. He is calm and easy going and ready to try anything. Him moving away has shown me that you can do things by yourself and he explores a lot. I am always scared of doing things by myself.
Brooke: She has so much confidence, since I struggle with that so much I really admire that about her. She can laugh at herself and make everyone else laugh, even in a bad situation. She loves life and everything that comes with it!
Jenny: She is my youngest and craziest sister, we have our rough patches and don’t always get along, but she is so daring. She is very fashion forward and always so cute (it sounds shallow, but I think it speaks to her being able to do what she wants and like what she likes regardless of what others think).
I really am so grateful for so many amazing role models and people in my life. I love you all so much!
