cap n' gown

To start off, I'd like to give a shout out to my little brother Dan for graduating High School today. He is the last of the kids to graduate and now my parents are empty nesters. I am not sure if they are excited about that or not, but we'll see within the next little while if they decide to plan some getaways and house parties while they are alone. But besides that point, I just have to brag about a couple of things. One, I loved spending time with my family today and hanging out with this little munchkin 

along with the rest of my nieces and nephews. Besides my little brother, the next closest sibling to me is eight years older. Because of this, my little brother and I have grown up together before our teenage years. I was able to travel around the world with him, play on the same sport teams, help each other learn spanish in school, vent to each other about drama with friends, relationships and whenever our parents drove us up the wall. My little brother is my best friend. A lot of people ask us if we are twins (even though he is two years younger than me). 
He just acts and looks older than his age. 

Also, I just wanted to give some word of advice for my little bromister. I know you weren't into the whole High School scene and are probably glad to be out of there, but all I have to say is, life gets better from here on out. College will blow your mind and put you in a whole other world. You are going to fall in love. I am excited that you and I will be able to go to the same University this Fall. You better prepare yourself for many restless nights in College because I will make sure you're getting the full experience you deserve. 

 I Love You
