To begin with, the priest who baptized me and my two sisters (who is still living, though retired) has a brother who is a priest, and three sisters who are religious (Franciscan Sisters of Alleghany). And in very recent times, I met a seminarian (who ordained a priest as of last year) who has two brothers in the seminary and one sister who is a Nashville Dominican! She made her final vows last year just before her brother's priestly ordination! I think it's very cool that there 'sibling vocations' in this day and age!
