Day 4 —Your sibling (or closest relative)

Day 4 —Your sibling (or closest relative)

I have one younger brother and one younger sister.  They are both awesome.  Kenny is about 2 1/2 years younger than me; Jenna is 6 1/2 years younger.

Currently, Kenny is half-way through his two year mission for the LDS church, serving in Sweden.  He has been all over and country and has such cool stories.  We only get to talk to him on the phone at Christmas and Mother's Day, but we e-mail every week.  I've been really impressed with his upbeat personality, and how genuinely happy he is.  It's been fun yet interesting to see him growing up through these e-mails.  Kenny and I fought a lot, like you do, growing up, but since we've graduated from high school, things have changed.  We even got to spend a year at school together.  It was so much fun to have him over for dinners every week.  Kenny is such a geek, but it's endearing.  I love how he tries to explain things to me that are over my head, so I just nod and smile.  He is super smart and talented as well.  And I just love him!

Jenna is hysterical.  She is the best little sister anyone could ask for.  She is so sweet and patient and a ton of fun to be around!  We are like two peas in a pod-it's like we share a brain!  Jenna is a junior in high school and 16, which freaks me out that she is so old already.  I have great memories of her when she was little.  Kenny and I would push her around in this plastic doll stroller I had.  She was just so cute it hurt.  She is still a cutie today.  Jenna is like my little ball of sunshine, because she is so funny and always makes me feel better.  She is supportive, patient and loving and will do many great things in life.  And I love her lots! :)
