3. Family

I come from a small family. I'm an only child. I haven’t got any brothers or sisters. I live together with my parents and my grandma, who is an old age pensioner. There are four people in our family: my grandma, my mother, my father and me. My father is 46 years old. He is an information specialist. My mother is 55. She is a manager. My ma is a short, average woman. She is very careful of her appearance. My father is tall and stout. I get on quite well with my parents. They trust me and let me do what I want. They give me a lot of freedom. They treat me like an adult and I can always turn to them for help and advice. At the weekends we go and visit those members of the family who don’t live with us. My grandfather is died seven years ago but my grandma is alive. She is eighty and she lives with us. We all love her cakes. I quite often see my grandparents. My father has got a sister and my mam too. This means that I have got two aunts. My aunts both have a children. They are my cousins.
