    I have about twelve big brothers but they aren't blood. My mom works in construction and has been for many years and they all love my like their little sister. Last year the hood of my car flew off on the highway and who came to save me?!?!?! One of my "brothers"....


    Do you love having extended family that is not blood?

    yea i do...for me, they are called rook brothers and sisters...they are the ones who went through rookdom (being a recruit) with me. we have our little groups out of us all, but for the majority of us, were family - thats how close our bond is. its hard to explain to people who never went through what we did, but they are my extended family...i'll do anything, including die for most of them.

    YES! my familytree is a bush! with stuff tied to it!
    my "mom" is biologically my aunt.

    my biological father and mother got divorced right after having me and my aunt and uncle adopted me.
    so 3 of my "brothers" are my cousins.

    then my biological father had a son. my half brother

    and now my "mom" is adopting my 13yr old cousin ( my "moms" sisters boy)

    so thats 5 brothers and no sisters

    i'm biologically an only child :D

    yeah.... my cousin isn't technically my cousin... my stepdad is her uncle, but my mom and him seperated (were never even legally married) but I always call her and her brothers my cousins...

    I grew up with 2 brothers...after I was married and had a few kids of my own, we were all told that my dad & my mothers 1/2 sister had twin boys (it was sorta family gossip while I was growing up anyways....and the fathers name was left blank on their birth certificate) a few years ago my dad got re-married to his brothers ex-wife who had a son & daughter.
    So I have 2 whole brothers, 2 twin 1/2 brothers/cousin, and a step brother & step-sister.
