Why we are, who we are!

WELCOME TO Doing Left Right

For those of you who dabble in the world of psychology, you may have heard of a little theory called “birth order” with reference to personality. In layman’s terms, your birth order is said to determine the kind of personality you have. With four girls and four birth orders, that makes for A LOT of personality.

First	Middle	Last	Only
Natural Leader	Flexible	Risk-taker	Close to parents
High Achiever	Easy-going	Outgoing	Self-control
Organized	Social	Creative	Leader
On-time	Peacemakers	Self-centered	Mature
Know-it-all	Independent	Financially irresponsible	Dependable
Bossy	Secretive	Competitive	Demanding
Responsible	May feel life is unfair	Bored easily	Unforgiving
Adult-pleaser	Strong negotiator	Likes to be pampered	Private
Obeys the rules	Generous	Sense of humor	Sensitive

I’d say these are about 85% accurate for us but there’s so much personality in a crazy family like ours, we all have a little bit of everything. Originally from Trinidad and Tobago, our perspectives and opinions on everything is always outside the box.  Our mother always said that during her time of the month (might be TMI) one month she has no pain at all and the next she has more pain than she did during any of her births. That’s where the name of the blog came from and our healthy sibling rivalries that every family has.

We have the right side siblings  (Candace and Celeste) who cause no pain or stress and are, in general, super nurturing and responsible in our mother’s life and the left side siblings (Caresse and Chelsea) who…well… let’s not call us “stressful” let’s call us INTERESTING and most times FUN. Life isn’t worth living if it’s not interesting right?! Then again, I am a left sider so I might be a bit biased!

We generally “team up” The right siders and the left siders: Candace and Celeste are usually the ones who keep Chelsea and I in the realm of reality.

A bit about us-

Candace- The oldest, the nurturer; the one who looks out for everyone, 28 years young and fabulous.

Caresse-The second oldest, sometimes too brutally honest, pseudo painter, 23 years mature and fabulous

Celeste- the third oldest , the wise one, cross country runner and violinist extraordinaire, 16 years old and fabulous

Chelsea- The youngest, the baby because she’s 14 but not so much, cheerleading captain and violinist extraordinaire, crazy and of course fab.u.lous.

Again, welcome to our blog where you can not only witness our lives but be a part of it!  Get ready for THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE!
