A picture of you and your family
A photo of me with my parents at my graduation. That's my Dad Paul on the left and my Mum Christine on the right.
My Dad had quite an influence on my interest in classic rock music and quite a few of the bands I like now are ones he blasted on our home stereo when I was a kid.. so loud that my Mum could hear it walking home from the supermarket.. which might explain me being hard of hearing at times. I love my Dad for his loyalty and his sense of humour while at times just not funny means he looks on the bright side of life. He lives in Reefton with my stepmum Shelly and my two step brothers Liam and Jordyn. My stepbrothers are still kids and I'm the sister that gives them books. My heart swelled with pride when my stepmum told me they took some of the books I gave them to show and tell at school. "Our sister Kirsty gave us these".. its enough to make a bookworm cry tears of joy.
I take after my Mum more than my Dad according to my sister. Mum is quite a bit more serious than my Dad (though she does have a sense of humour.. which is fairly warped at times like mine). She taught me cooking and baking (I'm better at the former than the latter) and encouraged my love of reading (though before when it was 'don't read in the dark you'll ruin your eyesight' it is now 'do you really need so many books?')
I am fairly close to my Mum and we talk on the phone at least once a week. Now that she has Facebook I can talk to her more often.
Mum lives in Greymouth with my stepdad Kevin. The amusing things about my stepdad could fill a blog all on their own. Kevin has two kids, both older than me.. Nicky who lives in Christchurch and Ray who is overseas.
I also have a younger sister Mishae. We really used to clash when we were younger but now we are pretty tight. Mishae never fails to make me laugh and says what she feels which can be highly amusing.
Mishae is mum to an adorable baby girl called Miley. I adore my niece and think she is just something else.
Like her auntie Miley loves books which I always buy for her. I look forward to her getting a bit older so I can gift her some more of my favourites.
