John and Jeremy were only gone for a week and I feel like Jeremy has grown so much in that short amount of time. He isn't that tiny little boy running around anymore. He is getting a little taller and filling out a lot more...getting ready to shoot up, which he better soon with all the food that he's been eating lately, and he's going to be a teenager next year!
I asked him tonight if it would make him feel special if I took him out to lunch sometime. (Sometimes I just like to be a nice big sis and take a brother out one-on-one because they don't always get that kind of attention in a large family). He agreed, and once we decided on a place to eat, I said, "Okay, let's call it a date then." Being the middle schooler that he is now, he said in his cool 'tough guy grown up voice,' "A date?!? I'm not going on a 'date' with my 21-year-old big sister. That's just weird." hahaha I said I go on dates with Dad sometimes. "That's weird, too," he said. He just cracks me up; I love him to death!

:) Way to be a cool big sis! Wow, I cant believe he is almost a teenager! It seems like just yesterday that he was running through the dugout and your dad was calling him 'Peanut' :)
ReplyDeleteLove that you post about your brothers! You are all pretty cool in my book:)
ReplyDeleteHahaha... love it. It's funny, I'm the only sib left at my house for about 9 days! The younger three just took off to visit Jess today and it's already been odd. So quiet! ;) Totally understand the brother growing up bit, too. It's like yesterday they were in kindergarten and now they're teenagers and getting taller than you and eating all your food. :) You're a good big sis, though and I hope you and Jeremy have a great time on your not-date. ;)
