How old were you when this was taken?

I think I was eleven.

What’s the story behind the picture?

We were at a hotel. It was on a road trip to North Carolina.

Why were you going to North Carolina?

To visit my grandma and my cousins.

Were you guys matching for a reason?

No. We were wearing those because my grandma gave them to us and we wanted to show her that we liked them.

How often do you get to see your grandma and what do you like to do with her?

I see her maybe twice a year and we usually go to stores with her and pick flowers in her garden and play board games.

Is there a special reason you got those pajamas?

I think it was for Daphne’s birthday.

Are you close to your sister?

Yes. She’s really cute and I can’t resist when she asks me for something.  She was four in that picture.

What kinds of things does she ask you?

She asks me to help build Legos with her and she asks me to write stories for her, since she doesn’t know how to write stories yet.  She asks me to help her with doing crafts.

What’s your favorite craft to do with her?

Probably making bracelets because she always has funny ideas of what she wants to wear. She’ll  choose the bright pink and purple as the main colors for beads with random colors mixed in.  She says that the other colors are “boyish”.

What’s your favorite part of having three siblings?

Probably that I get a lot of entertainment from them and I also get to have my own time when they are doing something else.
