My Family


Today I’m here to write about my family. I can start by telling you that I have two brothers and one sister, but I’m not going to write about them. They are too boring. Instead, I would like to write about their wonderful children. Oh, children, they always soften our hearts. I have two nieces and one nephew. Anna is the oldest one. She’ll turn thirteen this year and she’s a little lady. She likes fashion and wearing a different outfit every day. I’d say that she isn’t a child anymore. She’s an adolescent and I feel sorry for my brother and his wife. That’s going to be hard!! She’s not the best student as well. My sister and I make jokes about it. We tell her that she’ll be a wonderful hairdresser. She always gets mad.
Anna has a brother, Carles. He’s three and half years old but he’s still a big baby that only wants to be with “mama.” His parents were able to take him off diapers very early and then, suddenly, after a couple of successful months, he started to pee on himself again. They’re still working on it. Regardless of that, he’s very nice and lovely. He loves motorcycles, cars, and Fernando Alonso (a Spanish Formula One champion). If you ask him what he wants to be when he’s grown-up, he’ll always say “Alonso!”
My second Brother, Jorge, also has a daughter. Her name is Aitana and she’s two and half years old. She’s younger than Carles but she talks a lot more, though. She loves singing and dancing and you better watch her performing if you don’t want her to get angry. Aitana is very smart for her age. She’s what we call a “little grandma” because of her comments about things. I like seeing them growing up although I don’t spend a lot of time with them.
This photograph was taken two years ago. We all are “bigger” now!

Yes, its true, children are more interesting! I love the story about Carles saying he wants to be "Alonso" when he grows up. "Little grandma" is a great term. I've known a few little girls that would apply to. Do you say "little grandpa," too? Lochlan has a bit of that quality in him.
