The Family Diary

I came up with this story idea a while, long while ago. It's about a single dad, Charles Cris, and a single mom, Melissa Jones, falling in love and getting married. The only problem at the wedding? Both families of seven have never met each other. So, Charles and Melissa create the family diary, a collection of entries by everyone in the new family. From the oldest of 22 to the youngest of 7 (this may change I don't have all the characters yet), the family tells of their ups, downs, and everything in between as they try to become somewhat of a "normal" family. Tell me what you think. I will put up the members of the family (that I have so far), and each member has his or her own personality. Also, I am writing each entry in a different font. Some time later I might post their personalities (although some may be obvious through the name).
