being from the south, she cooks well. I like her potato Salad,
baked holiday turkey, and her fried chicken. She always asked

me, “Who I loved the most.” I would say, "first, I love my

grandma; second, I love God; and lastly I love you.” People my
grandmother discovered what I was saying, and she corrected

me and said I should always like God first. Not really arguing
that she comes second and then my mom is still in third.

I have about five aunties and about seven uncles. In 2018, three

of my last uncles passed away.
I have two living aunties and my mother alive. These last three

women lived in Los Angeles. I see my aunties as my mothers.
My cousins are like my friends. I am thankful for my family.

Genealogy

My relatives are from the famous, veterans, pastors, to college

graduates.

My family brings me so much joy and happiness. Aunts, uncles,
and my cousins. I really like having the whole family get

together. In my youth, blessed with laughter.
Most of my relatives are very humorous! In that, I conceived

they could have been comedians. I have a sense of humor,
sometimes weird. Barrels of laughter just simply being close to

family. Laughter is like joy.

Unlike me, they make friends and have good personalities. I am
an introvert. In my early days, I was very timid.
