Explanation:

Hay cinco miembros en mi familia: mi mamá, mi papá, mis hermanos y yo. Todos son muy diferentes. Mi papá es ruidoso, mi mamá está tranquila, pero una vez que está nerviosa, está nerviosa. Mi hermano menor es muy emotivo, y mi otro hermano es muy digno y distante, pero tiene una debilidad por nuestra madre. Cuando se trata de mi, yo soy una mezcla de mis padres. Soy paciente cuando debería, y reacciono cuando debería. Todos tienen una gran relación con todos, y esta familia funciona con mucha confianza y aún más, amor. Peleamos casi nunca, y cuando lo hacemos, se trata de algo pequeño y estúpido. Mi familia es mi todo.

There is five members in my family: my mum, my dad, my brothers and me. Everybody is so different. My dad is loud, my mum is calm, but once she's nervous, she's nervous. My youngest brother is so emotional, and my other brother is very worthy and distant, but has a soft spot for our mother. When it comes to me, I'm a mixture of both my parents -- I'm patient when I should be, and I react when I should. Everybody has a great relationship with everybody, and this family functions with much trust and even more love. We rarely fight, and when we do, it's about something stupid and small. My family is my everything.
