My family I have a small family. The people I see most often are my mother, father, and brother. My brother is younger than I am. Both of my grandmothers are dead, and so are both of my grandfathers. I have two uncles that I see sometimes, and I have many other aunts and uncles that I only see rarely. I have many cousins as well, but I do not see them often. My father is a talkative and funny man. My mother is very friendly and optimistic. My brother is a little lazy, but also very funny and creative. In general we are a happy family.
