    Tallest girl in the family at 5'9" - two other sisters are 5'4, one is 5'2. Mom was 5'2".
    Dad did NOT like it when I got taller than he was, which was 5'8". Brothers are both 6'.

    I was always the tallest at school, right from the beginning. Never bothered me, nor anyone else.
    Always liked being tall, so no problem there. Good thing I didn't like wearing heels, though!

    I'm 5'4" and I am definitely the short one in my family. DMother is around the 5'8" - 5'9" mark, DH is about 5'9 and then my DBrother is almost 6ft and a bean pole who turns sideways and disappears. Surprisingly I was pretty tall in my class, even compared to the guys I grew up with, they seemed to hit the growth spurts after graduation because now most I've seen in recent years have a few inches on me.

    I'm 5'1. DH is 6'4. Definitely a big difference. lol. People comment on it often but we're used to it.

    My mom and sister are over 5'7. So I'm the only short one in my family.

    I hate being around DH's family because they are all very tall. Even their wives are tall. No one is shorter than about 6 feet! Crazy!

    5'5"....probably more like 5'0" now...sigh...back in the day I was as tall or taller than friends; it seems that everyone is getting taller...DD is 5'7", lives in stilettos, her DH is 6'3", so our grandson is sprouting up like a weed...one of the tallest in his gr 1 class even now.
    Unlike Nat, I loved stilettos, lol and would wear them today if I could!

    Quite unlike Lady Gag, however. Is it me or does she look like she belongs on the set of "HungerGames"?

    That's a scary photo Lynn LOL

    I'm 5'3 and my hubby is 5'3. We pair perfectly. As for the family, mom is the same height as I am, Dad was 5'9 and my brothers were blessed with height at 5'11 and 6'3. Jerks. lol I always wanted just a few more inches!

    My guy friends were always taller and girlfriends short, except one. My one girlfriend is 5'9. She's the odd duck, but I love her anyways.

    I'm 5'9 and a half. I'm the shrimp in the family. My mom is 5'10, my dad is 6'3 and my brother is 6'8. All my cousins, aunts, and uncles are over 6 feet. I wish I was a little taller so I could blend in a little better with my family.
