the son

My parents had 3 lovely girls before they were blessed with a boy. My brother Jack is a great kid. He turned 16 last week. I cannot believe how the time has flown by. I remember my mom being sick during her pregnancy. I remember piles of laundry in the family room because she was so tired and sick to do much of anything. I remember the day she was in labor and that we went to some little chinese restaurant in Yorba Linda. And I still remember the way he smelled when my parents brought him home from the hospital. Whenever I watch old home videos of all of us together my heart hurts because of his cuteness. To celebrate we went to Rainforest Cafe and had sundaes at mom & dad's. Happy Birthday baby brother. I love you.
