23/30

Aunt Donna.  My mom's sister.  We were so very fortunate to have been so close to my mom's sister and her four kids growing up. It's nice to know your parents love you, but it's also good to know someone else besides your parents like you and love you too!  Aunt Donna would keep me and my brothers (and sometimes just me!) for days at a time during the summer when we were little.  She had four boys and there was always something to do!  She was always so patient and kind and just rolled with all the craziness 7 kids bring!  As an adult, I've evacuated with Aunt Donna and just recently vacationed with her and her sons and their wives/kids.  It was so much fun!  She's so laid back and kind   and creative.  I think her and my mom together illustrate how a sibling relationship should be - I hope me and my brothers can emulate their relationship as we continue to grow.
