So you’re Daddy’s little girl and Mom’s best friend but there’s another special human that holds such an important role in our lives. He’s over-protective yet completely destructive. He’s uncontrollably obnoxious but undeniably lovable. He’ll make your laugh until you cry, or just make you cry. I think we can all agree that unbelievable person goes by another name… brother.
Whether he’s old or younger, there is no doubt that growing up with that boy by your side has shaped you into the young woman that you are today. Although he was proabably the first guy to ever push you down, he will undoubtedly be one of the last guys to make sure you are standing on your own two feet. And even though I know you are probably thinking of all of the times you begged your parents for a baby sister, here are just a few of the reason why growing up with a brother truly prepared you for life…
1. You basically invented the blame game, so nothing gets by you.
2. You’ve known your whole life that girls rule and boys drool.
3. There is a story behind every scrape and scar on your body.
4. You didn’t need MTV to learn every swear in the book.
5. You knew way too much about male anatomy before you needed to.
6. You are a fighter.
7. You know you are the princess and you use it to your advantage.
8. Cleaning up after your friends is just second nature for you.
9. But, sometimes you just can’t help but get a little dirty.
10. You’ll probably take a beer over a martini any day.
11. You actually know a thing or two about sports.
12. Not much gets to you because your brother is the only one who can insult you… and he’s way too good at it.
13. Your guy friends refer to you as one of the boys.
14. You can take whatever life throws at you.
15. Nail salons are ok but you know video games are meant for detox.
16. You’re competitive by nature and you always strive to be better.
17. You know you’re a total catch because your brother hates it.
18. Your tolerance for BS is pretty low.
19. What you lack in the beauty department, you make up for with your personality.
20. You know that no matter how many times you fall…
21. You’ll always have someone to pick you up.
Thanks brother ♥
