Where did I come from

Lately I have been thinking a lot about family history.  Where did I come from?  Who am I? Who are my ancestors?  I have been told that I have great ancestors. I just wish I knew more about them. I know that I am the oldest of 6 kids. Myself and one sister and one brother are married.  I have 2 wonderful kids.  I was blessed to know all 4 of my grandparents, now only one is alive, and one set of my great grandparents.  On my dad's side I have one Aunt married to my Uncle and 3 cousins, one who has passed on and 2 living lives married or single or married or not. Neither or them have I seen since 2001.  On my moms side I have Aunt married to and Uncle with 3 kids, 2 of which are married. An Uncle married to my Aunt with 2 kids and I do not know how many foster children they have had.  And I have one more Uncle divorced and as loving as ever has cared for children but none to call his own.  So alive that I know about is my grandma, my parents, 3 brothers, 2 sisters, a sister in law and a brother in law, my Husband and 2 kids, 3 Aunts, 4 Uncles, 8 cousins, 3 cousins in law and one second cousin. That is 30 people that I know are related to me in someway.  I guess I should add to that. I have a mother in law, Father in law, a sister in law 2 nephews and one niece and one stepson. So that brings my total to 37 known relatives.

I know i have meet my parents cousins, aunts and uncles.  I do not know how many are alive and do not know to much about many of them at all.  I know very little about my great grandparents. One side, the Moomaw side goes back far. The Tracy side might have some done yet I don't know.  The Bagwell side goes back a bit but not to far. The Woods hit a dead end only 2 generations back.  I wish I could find out more.  I wish I had stories of my family. Who am I?  What nationality do I have.  Somethings I have been told change each time I ask?  So of the 37 people I have contact with on a somewhat basis there are billions more I know nothing about.  Some know even less some a whole lot more.  I hope you are lucky to know more and know where you come from.

Daisy

My favorite flower is a daisy. I think they are so pretty. I love how simple yet elegant they are. And this is was a daisy symbolizes; The flower symbolism associated with the daisy is purity, innocence, loyal love, beauty, patience and simplicity.  Is that not just awesome. I love the definition there. I would like to think and hope that I am described with some of those qualities.  Daises make me happy.
