My Brother

I love my brother. he is amazing.we found out this week that he and his wife are having a baby girl. the name the have chosen is Clementine Agnes. i love it! that name is fun! the rest of my family thinks it kinda weird and old lady-ish, but i think its perfect. SO anyway. he sent me a text today that really touched me. he said " Did you make it to the specialist yet? If its a $ issue, let me know and ill give you some cash. you're gonna be an aunty so take care of yourself" i just thought it was super cute and thoughtful. i talked to him for a bit afterward, and then one of his friends later and she was talking about how he was telling her how worried he was about me and my heart problems and not to mention my depression.
growing up my brother was hardly ever around. he is ten yrs older than me and was out of the house before i was a teenager. he was always the kind loving brother that would pick us up from school if we were sick, but wasn't really the kind of brother that would just come hang out. he still isn't, but he is getting better at it. once he got married our relationship got better. tho i must say i hang out with his wife more than i do him. they are perfect for each other. they bicker a lot kinda like our parents and grandparents but they totally love each other, and i totally love him. i couldnt ask for a better brother.

Definitely agree; it's a beautiful name for a little girl! So fun!
I'm glad you're starting to develop a relationship with your brother. You need that support.
Hope you're doing "well" compared to your "poorly."
