Through The Years

I am in awe at just how time flies by so fast. It seems like yesterday when I used to bully my baby brother and drink all of his milk. Now, my baby brother is a baby no more, now my worst enemy is my bestest friend in the whole world. On the 22nd of April, my brother turned 26! Omg! 26?! Is my brother really that old? Wait, does this mean I am really old, since I am his big sis?! I really wish I could rewind the hands of time. It's funny how long ago, my brother and I would fight almost every minute of every day. I used to be such a mean big sis to him when we were kids. I would lock him out of the playroom or hide all the toys that way he would never get to play with them. Then somehow, as we had gotten older, our bond had changed, we grew together. We learned to share and take care of each other.

  

I even recall a time when my brother was so annoying that I kicked him, thus as you can see in the above picture, my brother lost his front tooth. Tsk tsk...And in that other picture, there goes my brother sucking on his fingers, while I am drinking all of his milk.

I do thank God, for giving me a brother. A brother who has always been so patient with me. A brother who accepts my meanness and has taught me to become a better person. I want to thank God for giving me not just any brother, but my baby brother. He is my best friend, my strength and my happiness.

My brother moved to California years ago. I should be used to his absence by now. I should be used to seeing him just a couple times of the year. But honestly, I am still not used to it. I long for the old days when we would celebrate birthdays together.
                             

                            

To one of my favorite persons in the whole world, Happy birthday my dear!
