My childhood web consists of several people. Those people are my mom, grandmother, grandfather, and sister.
My mom was a single parent, but she provided my sister and I with a loving, nurturing, and supportive environment. My mom also wanted me to pursue the things that made me happy. I really enjoyed horseback riding and my mom dedicated many years of her life to taking me to the horse farm. Even now as an adult my mom is very supportive of my decisions and encourages me to better myself.
My grandparents worked together as a team. They both impacted my life tremendously. They were there to help my mom. My grandfather was the male figure in my life. He was the one who was a chaperone for all of the school field trips, take me to my dentist and doctor appointments, and would pick me up from school everyday, so I would not have to be home alone until my mom got home from work. I used to spend a lot of time with my grandmother. We would go on nature walks and she taught me how to cook. Unfortunately she passed away when I was 14 years old. The most important thing that I learned from her was to be kind to others and to help out people who are less fortunate then yourself.
My sister is my bestfriend. She and I are complete opposites, but we balance each other. She has always been supportive of me, even when she thought I was making choices that were not in my best interest. I think we formed a strong bond starting when we were children and I want that bond to continue forever.

You know, my sister (the one I'm closest to) and I are complete opposites too. It's funny because pretty much everything about us is different, but we have a strong bond and enjoy each other's company very much. I think we can aggravate each other as well, but it's never anything serious. Sisters are so great to have! I hope my daughter will get a sister some day, because I want her to be able to have that experience as well.
