My mom, Sharon, is a computer specialist, and an art teacher for the local elementary school. She's a good editor for a writing assignment and always has a list of fun ideas to work with. I definately have to say that after Dad had to leave for the Middle East, we became a lot closer. We share the same passion for horses, although she doesn't have the chance to ride nearly as much as I do. She's the 'gymkhana parent' you might say :).
My dad, Stuart, is a Colonel in the Army National Guard, completing Special Forces and Ranger training. He's the guy to go camping and shooting with, and is pretty active in all our school activities --including fully supporting my wrestling, which I'm grateful for. I'd definately have to say I can work with him a WHOLE lot better than I can with Mom. We just think alike I guess. He's also the parent to go to about anything political. Many a good social studies report have come from this source ;).
Jon, my little brother, is into anything army. He enjoys an active imagination and gets frustrated easily when things aren't going his way [not to mension specializes in the "I'm-coming-in-a-minute"-but-then- procrastinating-for-an-hour move]. He likes playing with his friends, reading, and is pretty dang good at chess. He has an obsession with Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings. He also participates in every sport he can, including wrestling.
