day 11 of Becky

My siblings..... I am the oldest of 5.....MY brother Rob is 14 months younger than I am.  He is living in Omaha with his wife.  they have travelled around a bit because of her job. the last place they lived was in the Seattle area.  I really wanted to go and visit them there but they moved before I was able to. Tim was 3 years younger than me.  We had a very special relationship.  I helped take care of him while he had AIDS.  he called me his angel.  He is now my angel.  He died at that age of 29, and that was 18 years ago in October. Jonathan is my youngest brother, he is 8 years younger than me.  He is very artistic. he lives in Massachusetts and is living on his own.  He and his wife are getting divorced.  He is very sad about that, we are too. He is trying to get on with his life , and is struggling.  Beth is my one and only sister.  She is 15 years younger than I am. Because of the age difference, we weren't very close while she was growing up.  We are gettign closer now but the time difference between NY and Arizona often makes it difficult to find time to just chat.  She add her husband, Kendall,  were here for a visit in august.  I really miss being able to spend time with my siblings....

Sorry I've been away from reading for so long. It's so hard to keep up with all the blogs I read sometimes. Blogger now offers an email subscription you can add to your sidebar. It's great. When you make an entry in your blog, it comes straight to my inbox. It makes keeping up so much easier. Have a good week!

My mother came from a family of five siblings, three brothers and then a sister... I miss them all at holiday times because we are spread out across the country. We sure do have a lot of fun even though seems like the only time I see them all is when someone dies. That just doesn't seem right at all, does it? Becky, you and I will have to push for family reunions.
