My older sister has taught me to keep going in life. Seeing her go to college and move away from home has been in- spiring to me, because I can see that it is possible. She also has taught me that no matter what I put my head to in life, I will be able to do it with enough dedi- cation. Katelyn is one of my biggest role models and who I will go to for advice. Hailey has taught me the importance of patience and being ready to have fun. She is always wanting to make everyone laugh and have a good time. — Natalee Chimienti
My sisters in particular give me the end- less love and support that girls should al- ways provide one another. Since I am the oldest, I give my sisters a front-row seat to my mistakes, so they can learn to not also make them. My siblings teach me pa- tience. Having four younger siblings can be challenging and demanding at times, but pushing through can teach you a lot. Since I go to college out of town, when I come home, I am wanted in every di- rection, which is an amazing problem to have, but can be very overwhelming at times. I have to learn how to be patient with them and understand that they are excited to have their big sister home. — Katelyn Chimienti
It is definitely a good and bad thing when there are many siblings. We do fight, as we are siblings, but there are also many times where the house is full of love and laughter. We do all sorts of things togeth- er. When we were little, we played games and watched movies, and now, we hang out and have a meal together. Having sib- lings has taught me how to share and grow as a person. Having my sisters in my life is a lifeline whenever I need wisdom or to share a laugh with someone. — Hailey Chimienti
