I had a brother and sister....a stepbrother and stepsister....and then three half-brothers and two half- sisters from my mother.

My brother and I fought like cats and dogs while growing up...but later became best friends. My sister and I have always been so-so. I got along fine with my stepbrother and stepsister because they were grown and out of the house. I didn't know much of my mother's family until she passed. Now, I'm great friends withthe youngest two. Thrree has passssed now...as well as my stepbrother and stepsiser. They were older and out of the house. I didn't know my mother's family until after she passed. Most of them are now gone. So, there are only four of us left....my younger sister and I....and my mother's youngest son and daughter....Wow....didn't mean to write a book....lol Sorry. PS....my stepfather also had two children---but we've never met....both are still living in Texas.
