My darling brother… another year older… wiser? I’m not so sure! But full of love!
Happy 40th birthday darling bro xxx
It’s my little brother’s birthday today. The first he’s celebrating as a daddy to two.
I can’t believe how fast time flies…
It only seems like yesterday that we hated each other and bickered and argued at every opportunity…
When that subtle change occurred, when “I hate you, I wish you had been a sister, not a brother” became “I love you and wouldn’t let anything in this world harm you” I don’t know, but it did, and honestly, I feel blessed to have a brother as loving and sensitive, and caring as you.
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for being there for me, whether physically or emotionally, and thank you for giving me such an amazing bhabi, and my beautiful nephews.
I wish you the best birthday, and many, many more to come.
I wish you luck
I wish you love
I wish you blessings
Sent from above
I wish you happiness
I wish you joy
I wish you sloppy kisses
From your little boy
I wish you strength
I wish you all that I may
But most of all
I wish you happy birthday
Ritu 2015
But I Smile Anyway...

What a lovely post and sweet photographs, wishing your brother a very Happy Birthday!
Sadly with my brother it’s been a bit of a cycle of bickering-being okay-back to bickering, we haven’t reached the closeness phase even at age 30 and 40 respectively. It’s wonderful you can be close, that’s a great thing to be able to say about siblings! 🙂

I totally understand you. Be sure that you are a wonderful role model for them in this and many other ways. However they might be in their teenage years, right those basics are what they will keep as a base and remember when they are through to apply it into their lives. I am sure.
