A brother to be proud of...

Several years ago, a bond was created between a wonderful man and myself. We are so much alike, think the same things, feel the same things, have the same horrible sense of humor, cry and laugh at the same things... we just knew that we had to be related. And so, we adopted each other. And every single day, I have been so incredibly proud of him. Okay, let me take that back, there were a few times I felt that he came from the back woods of Arkansas and had inherited our *made up* cousin Jethro or cousin Edgar's mentality! But he recovered his senses and I reclaimed him *publicly* again. I just wanted to say, thank you, Tom, for always being there for everyone who needs you, for being so dumb at times I wanna smack ya but am thankful you still believe in the good in people, no matter how badly you are disappointed or hurt by them. Thank you for making me laugh and for all your hugs when I just think I cannot put another foot in front of me. Your blogs are amazing... and I love all the photos that you share of your daily life. Mom would be so proud!!
