Happy 45th Birthday, L.R.!

Today would have been my brother's 45th birthday.  For those of you that don't know, he passed away in a car wreck in 2006.  On days like the anniversary of his death and his birthday, I tend to reminisce about him more than normal.  He was such an amazing older brother.

Him and I were 15 years apart and he moved out of the house when I was 3.  Most people would think of this as problematic, but I always looked up to him so much.  He definitely had his issues, but he never once made me feel as though I was a burden.  He loved me so fiercely and would do anything in the world for me.  Now that I am pregnant with my own child, it breaks my heart that he will never get to be the amazing uncle that I know he would have been.

Cheers to you big brother!  Hope you are listening to Willie Nelson, eating pound cake and blue bell, and enjoying a cold Budweiser!  Miss you more than you will ever know!
