The Young One
Being the youngest in the family definitely has its advantages. As the young one in my family I did not just get the hand me downs, because I was so much younger than my sister and brothers that I actually was treated like a son. On the other hand the other side of that is that I would also have four more parents making sure that I was doing the right things. But in general, it was great, I loved never having to worry about shopping, because my sisters slash shopaholics would get me anything I wanted! And when your that age where you have to be babysat by your older siblings, the things you do are never your fault. That's right I would sometimes get away with murder at my house and would never have to take any punishments. So in conclusion, the young ones are always the best!

Family
Going through high school and just school in general was always funny because the first thing my teacher would say to me was "Oh no not another Lester". I have three sisters and a brother and let me tell you we would always leave an impression on our teachers. Whether that was a good one like my oldest sister Vanessa who was always known for being a people pleasure and perfectionist. She married her high school sweetheart right after graduating from Butler and now has two little boys. And then their was my sister Ashley who was just a fighter. She was just a pistol and would tear your head off if you got in her way. Now she is married to a guy who she met at a summer church camp and recently had an adorable baby girl named Jaycie Ray. And down the list their is my one and only brother who was the most organized person you could ever imagine. He would be the guy in your class that would keep to himself all the while acing every course and doing as little as possible. On the other hand he had another side to him that no teacher or even for that matter parent knew, a secretive rebellious attitude. In every large family you have the goofy sibling and in my case that was my youngest sister Keeley. She was the one never paying attention in class because she was always talking. She was friends with every single person in the class and also stayed connected with everyone after graduation. She became a elementary education teacher for the main reason that she can be herself with the other seven years old.And after all four of my siblings broke in the teacher their came me. A kid that was very self efficient or in other words lazy. The one who was always trying to cause trouble in elementary and slowly got out of that habit by high school. The kid who lived and breathed sports and to this day watches two to three hours of ESPN. Well that pretty much summarizes my family and their different personalities.
