Having siblings can be the best thing in the world and also the worst thing in the world. As the third child (out of four) I know how it feels to be close with siblings. I would definitely say that me and my siblings are very close and we have been for a really long time and continue to be. We all support each other at our best times and worst times no matter what. This week, I thought I would share why having siblings that you’re close with is the best and worst thing in the world.

WORST
1. They embarrass you
If you have any siblings, you know you will be embarrassed purposefully by them. Whether it be in front of their friends, your friends, other family members, or anyone else, they are always looking to embarrass you. I remember performing in a cabaret that was pretty formal and when I went up to sing my song, all I hear is my older brothers voice yelling "He's so good looking!". I was so embarrassed to say the least. But, it's all out of love and something to laugh at in the future.
2. They know everything about you
This could be the best and worst thing ever. The best because they know how to deal with things with you and how to help you, be there for you, etc; however them knowing everything about you can also be hard. You have no secrets and they can bring up anything at anytime. I do trust them, but still... they know everything about me
3. They know how to annoy you
To say they know how to annoy me would be an understatement. We all know how to more then annoy each other. We know every little thing that annoys, scares, or makes each other feel uncomfortable. There's probably not a day that goes by that one of us doesn't annoy each other somehow, but as I said before, it's all out of love.
BEST
1. You have best friends for life
I can honestly say that with my siblings there is never a dull moment. Just like a best friend, we do almost everything together when we are in the same place. We do fun things, chill things, crazy things, embarrassing things, and so much more. We even have a group chat that we talk in constantly called "The Fam✌️️💯 " where we talk about everything from random stuff to what just happened to us five seconds ago. We have tons of inside jokes and hang out with each other constantly when we can
2. Family vacations are the best
This is where it gets interesting and fun. Vacations are the best with my siblings. We recently went to Universal Studios and because we are competitive and love the ride, we went on the "Men In Black" ride over and over... and over again to see who would win with the points (I always won by a lot). But we all have fun and do every ride together. While on roller coasters we all scream when the ride is going slow or going up before a drop and be silent during the drop or crazy parts. We also on some rides that have music dance and scream and have the best time.
3. They’re always there for advice
As I am the third child, I already have two siblings before me that know have experienced life more than me. But, there are always times when we all need advice from each other. Whether it be personal things to what song we should listen to or sing. No matter how stupid, silly, funny, or serious the advice we need is, we are always there for each other giving advice.
4. They make you laugh constantly
My family definitely has a unique sense of humor. We all have our funny moments when we all laugh although I would be willing to bet, most other people wouldn't find the things we find funny, funny. We just "get" each others comedy and it just goes from there. Laughing uncontrollably to even the stupidest jokes we make. But I know, whenever I'm with them, I'm going to be laughing.
5. They always have your back
Most importantly, we all have each others back. If we have a bad day then we are right there to lift each other up. If we have a good day, we are right there to be happy for each other. If something happens we will stand up for each other. No matter what it is, when it is, or where it is, we all have each others back no matter what.
I couldn't end on that last one. You know I have to add in some cheesy thing at the end.
To my siblings: I love you guys so much. You guys have been there for me 24/7 and I could not thank you enough. You guys are always there to cheer me up when I am down and make me even happier when I am already happy. You guys have supported me and have always had my back. You are truly my best friends and I couldn't have asked for a better three siblings. Love you guys so much.
