A HUGE happy birthday to my little brother, who turns 18 today! Where have the past 18 years gone!? Time is flying way too quickly, and I’m feeling rather old. I still remember the day he was born, and my Dad picking me up from school and taking me to see him. When he was small we used to call him the Orangutan because he had a shock of red hair that just grew upwards and wouldn’t flatten down!
Like all siblings we had blazing rows when we were children, squabbles and arguments with ‘I hate you!’ flying around quite often. Thankfully as we’ve grown up those squabbles have turned into laughter, the ‘I hate you’s’ have turned into hugs, and I couldn’t imagine my life without him. We grew close when we moved to Australia, and since then all we do is laugh and have fun, and we even went on holiday just the two of us back in August, to Denmark and Sweden! It’s also great because he refuses to go on holiday with my parents unless I go too, so they still have to take me on holiday every year just to be the entertainment 😉 haha.
There are so many amazing memories and photos from the past 18 years, that I could go on forever, but here are a few of my favourite photos below just to sum up my amazing brother.
Happy Birthday Chris!
Have the most amazing day, I don’t tell you nearly enough, but I love you and am so thankful for you!
