Family is a group of people related or not, that you can count on. They love you unconditionally and you love them the same. You are all connected emotionally and spiritually...you laugh, cry, fight, hug and love each other. You get mad, angry, sad and you talk it over. The bottom line is love. A family is love..no matter how big or how small.
