"Siblings are the people we practice on, the people who teach us about fairness and cooperation and kindness and caring--quite often the hard way."
Ethan Keelan [20 yr.]- The protective: She's closest with her eldest brother despite the age gap. He's the most protective of all the siblings personally making it his duty to make sure each and every one of them is safe. This desire makes them click best together because both of them put their family before themselves though he wishes she'd sometimes care for herself more, she wishes he'd do the same.
Derek Keelan [18 yr.]- The Disciplinary: With both Maeve and Ethan constantly coddling their younger siblings Derek took the position of being the disciplinarian when their father couldn't. They had far too many siblings for their father to bare it all alone while working. It's made him the most feared of by the younger siblings, but it's a respectful fear. Sometimes She believes Derek is too harsh on them, which often leads to them getting into an argument. It never lasts long since Maeve isn't one to argue.
William Keelan [14 yr.]- The smooth talker: Maeve and Will are often at odds with one another, though like with Derek it never lasts long because the very reason she get's upset with him is the very way he calms her down and that's with his words. He talks himself out of just about everything and it infuriates her and her older brothers, but then he charms his way into calming them down and they don't realize what he did till he's already walked off.
Samuel Keelan [13 yr.]- The hard worker: If anyone works harder then Maeve in the family it's Samuel. He works as hard as his little 13 year old body allows. Often trying to even help their father out at work with what little things he can do to free up his and his older brothers hands. He also usually winds up doing most of the work William is supposed to do, though he never complains about it, just happy that he's got something to do that helps. Maeve often makes him a to-go lunch like she does their father, to make him feel like he's going off to work with them.
Lola Keelan [11 yr.]- The rebellious: Lola and Tyler are like two pea's in a pod always out about in town doing whatever comes to their minds to do. Their parents often view her as rebellious because she tries too often to do what her brothers are doing rather then learn what her and her sisters are supposed to be learning to do. She'd rather go play with the boys, then stay in with the girls. Maeve doesn't mind it, in fact she encourages her little sister to be herself, so long as she remembers her limits and takes care of Tyler while they are out together.
Tyler Keelan [9 yr.]- The Adventurous: Even though he's younger he's got all the spunk and energy that Lola has and even more curious. He's usually the one who comes up with their more troublesome plans. She one again doesn't mind because they are young and supposed to want to explore the world around them, but she does worry about him a lot more then the rest, warning him that curiosity killed the cat.
Jasmine Keelan [8 yr.]- The shy: Jasmine stays tucked away to herself most of the time, and while it sort of worries Maeve that she's so introvert she doesn't bother her about it. She figures when it's time she'll come out of her shell because right now she's still young. Maeve see's a lot of herself in Jasmine especially how she was at that age, so that's why she has faith the girl will be just fine. She just hopes she doesn't make her same mistakes.
Chris Keelan [6 yr.]- The momma's boy: Chris Follows around their Mother everywhere she goes, and since she stay's home most of the day he doesn't need to cling to a secondary person like Pearl. Though if their mother is busy Maeve will take him out with her and Garfield from time to time. Every time they leave however he always comes back with something for their mother, usually a flower or a shell he found while walking around.
Pearl Keelan [5 yr.]- The daddy's girl: Pearl follows around their father every where he goes except to work, and when he's there she tends to cling to Samuel who's his spitting image and has a lot in common traits wise with their father too. When he's home she constantly is near him even if it's just sitting beside him playing with her own toy. She doesn't seem to like to be around any of the girls of the family usually crying when any of them try to pick her up or take her to a room away from their father. She only let's Maeve hold her when it's story time at night before they go to bed.
Garfield Keelan [3 yr.]- The cutie: Maeve spends a great deal of her time caring for Garfield since Mother has her hands full with the twins and Chris always following her around. Maeve enjoys it though, and hopes to one day have a kids just like him. When ever she can she takes him around town with her, and the villagers like to joke saying that he's her kid.
Jayla & Jayden Keelan [2 yr.]- Thing 1 &2: These little twin tykes are in their terrible two's. You'd think the family would have a better grasp on this phase after going through it ten times before but they seem to reek more havoc then those before them. It keeps her mother, Maeve, and Derek on their toes at all times. They seem to do the exact opposite of whatever you wish they'd do.
*From Jasmine and younger are the siblings that stay in the home most of the day with their mother. While Tyler to William roam or help out around the village or their family buisuiness. The two eldest sibling work full time with their father in the family business.
