These are just a number of them. My little nieces and nephews. 38 of them as of today. Coming from such a big family, I’m still able to remember all their names and their looks.
Full of action.
There are 14 – 1(deceased) of us from the same mother and father. Our parents could memorize our names without fail too.
We are a big family that full of laughter and jokes. We talk like friends. Be it mother to daughter, sister to sister, sister to brother, brother to father……..
Any villagers activities at all, there will be representatives from the house. We help and helped.
Who has never caught in and argument among siblings ?
You are lying..!
Growing up among the huge family. I experienced bullying and being bullied. Argument is part of our lives. That keeps us strong, close and together, regardless of age.
Its all about love. Love keeps us together.
At times, our games and jokes can be scary, but a joke is a joke. Nobody get hurt even it sounded hurting to a stranger’s ear.
“No matter how far apart, keep-in-touch and do not ‘fight’, especially when you are having your own family” My mom said.
We would gather as often as we could. Travelling cost is never an issue.
‘Support you brothers and sisters’. Thats the word of wisdom from our parents.
Having all their children under one roof again is the best moment for my aging loving parents.
The family activities vary from land to ……..
ocean..!
A mansion is never spacey enough when we get together. At times, rooms got to be shared and going to the washroom is a waiting game.
Even when eating time is by turns, no one complained, as we had been told to…
‘Give in to the elders’ and
‘Be forgiving’
Its fun….! Having a big family is indeed, fun..!
Distance keeps us apart, but LOVE keeps us together.
