says a lot

My brother had to do his 'Family Life' merit badge.  As part of this each of the family members were to come up with 10 reasons why they were important to the family as well as 2 reasons for every other member of the family.

My mom sent them to me.

It seems that EVERY person in our family was deemed 'important' because they are funny.  Some were given this reason more than once, but everyone was called "funny"

...except for- maybe- mom.

Apparently humor is an essential part of our home.

I am important because:

(here are my favorites)

I send presents from Hawaii

I'm funny

I'm a fish (fearless water child)

I am dad's helper

I'm the guinea pig

I love my brother

I practiced the piano before school when I was in Jr High 

and again I'm funny

Fun stuff.

Funny stuff.

Also, my sister sent me a message- 

"Someone was on the phone talking to Melissa, and obviously wanted to talk to an adult person. She said that they could talk to her older sister,  "Aria isn't here, but you can talk to Alayna, she is 'the next best thing.' Ok?" So there you go. I'm the next best thing."

AND- I've been kinda sick.  In my weekly email to my family I said that I wasn't feeling so well.  My cousin Brett emailed me today and said "oh no! Aria's not well that week! Never Fear, Brett Shall Appear!" with a little emoticon person coming to the rescue.
