40+ Family Quotes to Remind You How Blessed You Are
Family is everything!

It’s been said many times before, but no two families are alike. Your relatives may be loud and crazy, small and introspective, totally conventional, or completely unorthodox, but your family is yours. And, no matter what, your family makes up a huge part of who you are. Celebrate the ones who made you the person you are today with these heartfelt family quotes. They sum up the strength and security families provide, the way your family loves you, and even that your relatives can — at times — drive you just a little bit insane. (Or are you the one that is driving the rest of them crazy?)

And then remember to go FaceTime with your mother — or is a family movie night more your style?
