Family Traditions are great to have; they bring you all together and create moments you cherish for a lifetime. Sometimes it can be hard to think of what you and your families do on a regular basis as a tradition and some may not have any at all. A family tradition can be almost anything; a tradition is the passing down of elements of a culture from generation to generation. It’s never too late to start a tradition.

These are just to name a few. Family plays a vital part in our lives. They are there for us when we need them, through thick and thin. People who are considered family are not always those you share blood with. Family is made up of many things: Loyalty, Trust, Love, Support, Sacrifice, Protection, Compromise, Respect, Acceptance, Security, Honesty, Gratitude and much more. Sometimes, we take our family for granted, not realizing or appreciating the fact that they have played a large roll in where we are today. Family can do the smallest things for you that make the biggest difference, and at times we do not acknowledge or show appreciation for it. We may feel like family is suppose to do certain things for us but in reality, they are not obligated to, so be sure not to take your family for granted.
