BROTHERLY LOVE

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BROTHER BUDDY!
If one's birth order places her in the "middle" it can be a BIG blessing if she is the opposite gender---such was my placement. Born between two brothers who are caring and who carefully continue to follow Mother's final days instruction to "take care of Dotsy," I am doubly blessed. (Proverbs 6:20)
Beloved, let us love one another".......(1 John 4:7)
As my older brother reminded me two years ago, he has always been "beside" me. How right he is. He sent me the proof in the pix below. 
Even as we aged and "little" brother, Bobby, out grew us all at 6'5", there was always room for me in the middle----right between them.
Of all the folks left on this earth, brother Buddy has known me the longest, stood beside me the longest and loved me the longest. How grateful I am! 
On his birthday, I lift birthday prayers of praise and thanksgiving for him in my life----yet I know I'm the one who has received the gift of an "always beside me brother."
