Some people spend their entire childhood fussing and fighting with their siblings and wishing they were an only child. Some spend their childhood in perfectly harmony. Well, not perfect, but almost. There are also those who have no other little person in their daily life to fuss with or to hang out with.
I was lucky,I got the opportunity to grow up with a younger brother...During the years our relationship has evolved and grown in many ways...Today on his 17th birthday, i just wanted to share some of that happiness with everyone and also remind him of the good and bad times we have had together in all these 17 years.
I first of all am not able to believe that my kid brother is 17 today, he still is that naughty little boy for me, running behind me or should i say chasing to irritate me and me running away out of fear. The one i used to play cricket with, have had the best times of my life with him. From sharing a cupboard to sharing secrets, we have come a long way and so has our special bond.
Now, about my brother......
What to say, he is the sweetest, cutest, smartest and the best brother in the whole world!!! But every girl thinks her bro the best, doesn't she? And I am no exception :D
We have had some of the biggest fights, i should say we have big fights (i am not joking...these fights are as bad as WWE fights) daily, and amma has got used to them so badly that the day we don't fight she asks us if we are alright!!! But these fights are all short lived, we are back together within no time.
We usually visit our grand parents in chennai every year, it is a long long train journey usually....the compartments of GT and Tamilnadu express really are a big part of our fun filled memories...the cup noodles, chess, playing cards...and unforgettable chats we had when we were supposed to be sleeping!
Though we can never stay together peacefully, we can never be at peace when we are away from one another... Its rare that we are away from each other for a long period of time, and every time such a situation has come up, we have known how important we are in each other's life....and have missed each others presence badly....at least i have!!We have often shouted at each other, been rude but the special bond of a brother and sister that we shared never lost its magic.These fights....they seem to continue till we are alive......that is what brings us closer....
It was nice growing up with someone like you - someone to lean on, someone to count on...someone to tell on!!!
Happy Birthday Channu :) This post was specially for
you :* Love you loads!!!
