Have you got any brothers or sisters?

My family

Read the following description of Lily's family:

I love my family. There are my mother and father, Sarah and Mark. Mum's a nurse, always taking care of people, and Dad's a technician, glued to his computer.

Next in line is my elder sister, Emily, who's 19 and doing the whole university thing. Then there's my younger brother, Jack, who's 16 and seriously obsessed with football. He's all about Arsenal – never stops talking about it!

We've got grandparents too. On Dad's side, we've got Edward and Margaret, and on Mum's side, it's James and Elizabeth. They're the storytellers of the family.

Now, there's Aunt Lucy (Dad's sister) and Uncle Richard (Mum's brother). Aunt Lucy is quite nervous, and Uncle Richard, well, he's the calm one. Aunt Helen is married to Uncle Richard. They've got two children – Jessica and Daniel. Jess and Dan are my cousins and never fail to bring some chaos to family gatherings.

Oh, and we've got the newest additions, my niece Sophie (Jess's daughter) and my nephew Oliver (Dan's son).

As for my own future, I hope to have a son and a daughter someday, and I'll be sharing this whole family tree with my future husband.

Lily.
