I don't remember my brother that much other than what my family has told me and some home videos. One particular video has my brother and I playing outside on our new swing set. I believe it was Christmas time and we were both dressed in our Christmas dress clothes. I slid down the slide and didn't manage to get my footing at the end, falling on the ground. My brother takes the hanky he had from his pocket and brushed my tights off. Every time I watch it I am overwhelmed with the love being shown. Seeing my girls together reminds me of the few memories I still have and cherish of my brother.
Today was such a beautiful day that I decided to let the girls go outside for a bit before we took our afternoon nap. Of course, I took my camera outside to snap a few shots of them interacting. I love the bond they have. I hope they always stay close and look out for one another. I hope they always share each others secrets and giggles. I sit here with tears in my eyes longing for the day we meet again. Until then, I get to witness a beautiful bond between my girls and I will do my best to nurture it. I love you, Brad!
This is so touching, Amy. What a beautiful tribute to Brad and to your girls. I'm over here all teary eyed, once again. I love you!
