Puzzle Description:

Three generations of my family tree. This is in celebration of my parents' 70th wedding anniversary.

At the top are my Mom and Dad. Next row: 10 children. Third branch shows 16 grandchildren. I am the fourth child (and oldest daughter). All offspring have made the world a better place. Among the siblings I can brag about: an environmentalist, a NASA mission control scientist, and two award-winning school teachers.

Wonderful story. I love the imagination used to express the concept.

Neat, but my first thought was that it was a picture of a flying spaghetti monster.

LOL - I remember that one. :-)

Haha clever title :D

Great solve... cheers!

Thanks, Kylie. I'm the fourth nut from the left, with three nutty kids.

I remember when I was a teenager and thought my family was weird. Then as I got older I learned that everybody else's family is weird too. We're all a little nuts! :-) Anyone who doesn't realize that can't be having much fun in life. :-D

And your siblings can also brag about an educator and humanitarian -- that's you.

I'm so glad this popped up on the home page. I might never have known to solve it. Lovely puzzle and story.
