HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRANDON

Today is a special day. My Brother Brandon would have been 33 today. We were 4 years apart, which I believe to be the perfect age gap for siblings. We never fought and I mean never. I looked up to him and he looked out for me. I don't know what it's like to be an only child, but I can't image my childhood without Brandon. I'm so thankful to have spent the first 22 years of my life in his company. Growing up Brandon always had his opinions about the guys I dated. They were never good enough. Thankfully Brandon got to know Nic before we married. He spoke highly of Nic and I could tell he finally felt that I had met my match. It means a lot to me that I had his approval of the man I will spend the rest of my life with. Not a day goes by that I don't think about Brandon and miss him, but I know he's somewhere watching over his family, including his two sons Clayton and Donovan. Brandon left behind his 1956 Ford F-100, which he had dreams of restoring. The truck now rests in our garage awaiting it's refound beauty. Today I celebrate the life of someone so very special to me. A Son, a Sibling, a Father and Friend. Happy Birthday Brandon!

A brothers love lasts a lifetime
