Relationship Reflection

 

This is a picture of my mom, Rose, my little sister, Tyria and me with wax figures of President Obama and First Lady Michelle in Washington, DC. As you can see the relationship I have with my mom and sister is very fun and exciting. My mother has always been there for me and my sister. First as a mom and then as a friend. I know that because of the relationship I have with my mother that I am who I am today. She is such an encouraging person and loves me no matter how many mistakes I have made. I'm also there for her when she needs encouragement and strength. My sister is such a smart girl and I try to encourage her so that she will be all that I know she can be.

This is a picture of my father, Vaughn, and my little brother, Vaughn III. My relationship with my father was not always good but what's important is that it is now. Not all relationships start out good but that doesn't mean that they cannot get better. My little brother is such fun to be around. I was my dad's only child until four years ago but I am so glad to have this little guy in my life now. He is more like a son to me than a little brother and I have him over my house and buy him things all the time. 

Relationships are so important. Children and adults need nurturing relationships in order to grow and prosper. Nurturing and dependable relationships are the foundation of forming a bond with people. Don take relationships for granted because you might not get a second chance to make a lasting impression.
