1. Whitney’s Family Web EDUC-6005-9 Foundations: Early Childhood Studies

2. Mom! My mom has always been there for me. She took me to every soccer practice, game, gymnastics. She took me to church every Sunday. We are so similar it’s scary. That is probably why we get in so many arguments. I get my stubbornness from her. I also get my love of the beach! 

3. Dad ;) I know what your thinking by now…are those her real parents?! Yes, they are. I am blonde, green eyed and pale. My parents are tan, brown haired and brown eyed. I love my dad. I am a complete daddy’s girl. He means the world to me. He is so smart. My dad is a world class fisherman. No really! He is a certified captain! He started his own corporation and has successfully run it for over 15 years. He’s my world.

4. Tommy (He’s the big one in the picture. The little one is his son, also name Tommy!) Tommy was my only sibling growing up. He was always there when I needed him. We may not have grown up as best friends, six years apart will do that to you, but you can never take away the connection of a brother and sister.

5. Muffin You are laughing. I know you are. In all honesty my pet was the closest thing I had to a best friend. Unconditionally loving, she was there every time I needed someone to talk to and she was the best listener. You might be asking what I learned from her? Responsibility, unconditional love, loyalty and so much more. Muffin will always be considered one of my childhood family members.

6. Friends I wasn’t the type of girl that had many “girl friends”. That’s why when I came across one I held on tight. Casey was and is one of my closest friends. She is my extrovert balance to my introverted self. Spending long summer days at the lake house, going to band camp together, spending the weekends hanging out and eventually living together in college. She is the closest thing I’ll have to a sister
