I watched my younger brother graduate this weekend. I would normally call him little but little does not accurately describe him because he is bigger and stronger than me now. And I think that the weekend was great but today I feel slightly like an emotional train wreck :)
A friend was telling a story this past week about how she saw a boy she used to babysit and did not recognize him because he had grown into a man. A man! When did my brother turn into a man? And how did I miss the transformation before my very eyes?
I hope he knows...
I am proud of him.
I am proud of the man he has become.
I am proud of the uncle he is to my children.
I am proud of the brother he is to my sister and myself.
I am proud to be his sister.

you have no idea how much it means to me to hear my oldest sister say such a thing about me.. on days when life seems like it couldn't get worse i know i will always have my family behind me and that i should realize that i am blessed to be who i am. its funny how u think u missed the transformation of me turning from just a kid to who i am today when i can't truthfully say i remember when it happened. it means a lot to me and i want you to know i am proud to be your brother and i always will be... there is never a time in life when i would not want you to be there for me and i will always be there for you..
yes its been a while since u posted this but its hard to find words to reply to this..
