30 Day Photo Challenge, Day 7

Day 7: A photo of someone you love



This is my brother Wade, and this photo was taken at Charlie's first birthday party. It's a very Wade photo.

Wade has influenced me in a lot of ways, mostly in music and books. He's one of those intellectual types, working on his PhD and all. But like me, he knows how to get down and be silly. We've had some great times together. He's one of the only people in the world who understands what it's like to have a dad like ours. (And you are probably saying, "Duh," but I don't know how else to describe it.) We've had our ups and downs through the years, but he's my brother. So he gets a lot of free passes, and I do, too.

Isn't that the truth. I think my brother and I feel much the same way. We're now in a place where we're really close and it's pretty fantastic. But goodness, were there some rough patches in years past.
