My family

Oh, the wonderful, crazy Whelan Family.....All I have to say is - CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG!!!!! Just kiddin...... but i do hear things and would just like to say that even with all the chaos and difference of opinions that many of us have whether it comes to religion, our children, the President or anything else I am still grateful to be part of such a wonderful family. I think its great that we all express our opinions(some more than others;) ) but thats what is so great about having such a big family. There is no way with this many people that we will all agree on everything. But just remember that we are family and we are entitled to have our opinions. I am not agreeing with or against anyone. I love my family and am thankful that I am still part of it even after the tough choices I made in my life. Even though it was hard, everyone came to accept my decision and my family which I am truely grateful for. I am also grateful that our family does not stray from each other just b/c we don't exactly agree on everything. I see alot of families that don't ever talk again b/c of things that are similar and I am just glad that everyone in our family understands that family is the most important thing. So with this beautiful holiday season coming up lets remember where we come from and how lucky we all are to be part of such a great family!!!!
