Dear Little Brother,
HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY!
I cannot even believe you are old enough to buy lotto tickets,cigs (but you better NOT), and go to some casinos.
That is not even cool, you are making me feel OLD.
I just remember yesterday I was telling you to get me drinks, playing in the sandbox, jumping on the neighbors tramp for hours, and finding strey cats with eaten tails (that was actually pretty traumatic I must say).
You have grown into such a handsome and wonderful young man
(I'll call you a man because your 18, your welcome.)
You have the biggest heart I've ever seen.
You got out of your way to help others and make them smile.
I've always loved that about you.
We argue a lot, but mostly because we are both stubborn and always
think we are right.
Well, you know I am always right so if you could just
get that through your little head then we would get along just fine. ;)
You scare me. A lot.
Everytime you go out with friends, parties, or even for a drive out of town.
I want to protect you from this crazy world and the harm it can cause.
I know you are too much like me for that to happen though.
You have the most beautiful voice in the world.
I want it, and I am pissed that you got a good voice and I got totally jipped.
You are such a great friend to everyone around you.
I am so thankful you are mine.
Sometimes you don't give yourself enough credit, but you should.
You are blessed with so many awesome gifts and talents.
Lastly, stop growing.
Would you like me to sit on your head?
Because I will. I'm not scared.
I don't like that you are growing up.
You need to stay little forever.
But brother...I really want you to know,
I love ya and wish you the best in everything you do.
Even when you get frustated with me :)
Even though you are making me feel old, which I do not enjoy. :)
XOXO
