So, it was my brother’s birthday last week and while I don’t normally embarrass him here - I’ve decided that sharing his unbearable cuteness would be kosher.
When my brother was born, he hypnotized my parents with his adorableness and I quickly and officially got the “oldest child” shaft.
I’ve tried not to hold it against him. I mean, I wasn’t made of steel. I was just as charmed by his sweetness as everyone else, but really.
