Growing Up

I love that my brother & I can still make each other laugh.

Tonight I had dinner with a majority of my extended family. My brother, his girlfriend Tara & I sat off to ourselves & were laughing so loud it was disturbing the others.

I took a moment to wonder what that would look like to, say, my grandparents, or my mom.

They knew us as little kids, they watched us grow - and worried about how we would turn out.

I guess we turned out pretty well.

I hope someone in my family was emotional about that, I know that at least I was.
