Empty Nest

Our family will be celebrating an important event tomorrow afternoon, my little (not so little) baby brother will be getting married!!!

It's still hard to believe that Ronny, the baby of the family is all grown up and will be embarking on a whole new journey will his lovely wife to be, Elissia. I am so proud of the man he has become and I know he will be a wonderful husband and the coolest dad (someday). 

I know that tomorrow will be a day full of different types of emotions (Kleenex please!) Our friends and family along with our church will be celebrating their union as man and wife.  There will be a lot of tears (of course, it's Papa we're talking about.. 96% of the church saw him in diapers..) there will be laughter, happiness, joy but especially, the family (my parents specifically) will be experimenting the "empty nest"... again! And although, it will be tough, but I know that my parents and our family as a whole is so happy to formally welcome Elissia into our family.  She makes my brother complete, brings out the best in him and makes him happy and that is all we ever wanted for him, happiness!


So, as I write these lines, I think back at our childhood together and how much fun we had growing up together, laughing, crying, playing pranks on each other, fighting... etc.. the joys of having a sibling.  And something my sister and I always tell him is that He will never be too grown for us, we will always be his big sisters (in age.. obviously not in height) and we will always love him, give him an earful, pinch him, punch him, hit him.. in other words, he will still endure all of the sisterly abuse he endured during his childhood.  His wife will see that things have not changed one bit in our relationship as siblings and they will never change because we have a special, unique, weird bond that only we understand!! Lol

Ronny, I want to tell you that I love you so much, you are the BEST brother anyone could have, although you are the youngest, many times you acted as the oldest because your young years are full of wisdom. I know that God will continue to bless you and your new family in this new chapter of your life.

God Bless you baby brother! xoxo
