The family that loves and helps

My brother drives me nuts sometimes, his name is Tim. But hey, he is my brother and I will always love him.
My older brother, Brian taught me to be thankful for things I don’t like.
He sticks up for me when the others pick on me. What a sight!
My oldest brother, John teaches me that obeying is better later. I love him so much, and I miss him greater!
My mom guides me, and I love her very much. She’s always there for me with the most tender touch.
My dad is always ready with words of advice. He loves us, cares for us,
and I think he’s wise.
My grandpa loves us, spoils us, and helps with my homework. He has a saying for everything, always a quirk!
My grandma spoils us a little bit, okay most of the time. She’s great to come home to, and never lets us whine.
This is a family that loves and cares for each other. I wouldn’t ever trade it for another!
