Do you come from a large or a smaller family? Like Bree said, my immediate family is on the small side, but I have a lot of uncles/aunts/cousins.
Do you visit with your family very often? Not my extended family, unfortunately. I see my parents (separately) and sister from time to time, but all that will change next week when I move in with my mom! I'll see them often.
Do you talk to them very often on the phone or on facebook? My mom and sister, yes.
Is family important to you? Yes. I wish I was closer with my grandparents and other extended family though. We live all the place and don't have get-togethers very often. I am very close with my mom and sister though, they are my best friends.
Do you plan to try to visit your family more now since you have a child/children? A huge reason we are moving to be closer to my mom and sister is so they can be a part of Jackson's growing up.

Do you come from a large or a smaller family? Pretty small I think. I have 2 siblings. Most of my family lives in Europe, except for my parents and sisters and one uncle, so even though we have a large extended family we haven't seen them in years.

Do you visit with your family very often? Yes my parents and sisters live within 30 minutes, so we see each other at least once a week.

Do you talk to them very often on the phone or on facebook? My mom calls every day.

Is family important to you? Yes very much. Friends come and go, but family sticks together and helps each other out.

Do you plan to try to visit your family more now since you have a child/children? My sister and I get together once a week because of the kids being the same age and playing together. My parents also want to see the kids all the time.

My immediate family is small--mom, dad and sister. But my extended family is huge on my mom's side. She's one of 5 kids. There are 21 great-grandchildren! And we ALL are there for holiday gatherings. Makes it crazy.
Do you visit with your family very often?
I'm actually at my parents' house now. LOL! I visit them weekly, sometimes more often. I spend a lot of time with my grandparents, too. They live right next door to my parents.
Do you talk to them very often on the phone or on facebook?
My mom and I talk everyday. And I talk to my grandma everyday, too.
Is family important to you?
Yes, I'd be lost without them. My mom and sister are my best friends.
Do you plan to try to visit your family more now since you have a child/children?
We're here all the time. My kids consider this a second home, especially since we lived here while DH was deployed. We usually spend the night on the weekends when DH is gone.

Do you come from a large or a smaller family? Large My dad is one of 8 and each of my uncles/aunts has 2 to 3 kids. My mom is one of 3 I believe But she was raised as an only child. My grandparents from her side had each 6 to 8 brother and sisters. So it adds up as well.

Do you visit with your family very often? I visit the ones here in miami every week or so or we get together for family events. The ones In cuba I saw them about 2 yrs ago I took a trip alone when I turned 18. Everybody else I have not seen...
Do you talk to them very often on the phone or on facebook? yeah both.

Do you plan to try to visit your family more now since you have a child/children? The ones that are close by only I don't like the idea of traveling with melanie so little.
