This weekend my baby brother turned 19. He also moved 8 hours away from home for the first time and got ready to start his first year of University.
I'll miss being greeted by various and sundry affectionate insults when I head home for a visit every week or so, and I know the house must feel strange with both of us gone now.
I realize he's technically been an "adult" for a year now, but I can't help but think of him as the little moon-eyed ball of energy he was at say, age 8, getting up from the dinner table to entertain us all with his own very original choreography, consisting of him pulling the bottom of his shirt up over his face, sticking out his belly and flailing his arms to whatever music happened to be playing.
Now he's taking law. The mind boggles.
Anyway, Happy birthday Lemur! I love you, I'm proud of you (Ew! Blech! Disgusting! Get it off me!) and I'll come visit soon.
P.S. I totally recommend reviving that t-shirt face dance for frosh week. What better way to become instantly popular (or, you know, wind up viral on Youtube...either/or).

So sweet. Awww.
aww he's obviously the best little brother in the world and you SHOULD visit him soon :D
Aw. I understand the feeling. My little sister, who's 18, is about to be giving birth any day now with her first.
It's a strange sensation when little siblings start growing up.
aw this is sweet.
Your brother sounds like a hilarious guy! Enjoy law school, I'm in one as well. His sense of humor will help getting through it. Happy brithday to him!:)
Best of luck, Lee. Maybe i will get in contact the next time i need a laywer. Your shirt lifting skills will come in handy for closing arguments.
