Happy Birthday Alex!


My little brother is one of those people you don’t find everyday. A rare type of fantastic, that you can’t buy at your local grocery store. He surprises me so often with all the things he knows about. I remember so many times saying something out loud like ex: “ I have no idea what the capital of Mexico is…” and then he comes in and just out of nowhere says, “ Mexico City”. Then continues on with his daily activities. While he has moved onto the next room, I stand scratching my head still wondering how the heck he knows all these things. He has this secret passion for life, and people that you cannot make someone have. I truly feel like he loves people more then you actually should. So he keeps it hidden, so you have to dig to find it. I think he loves big, and then that opens a door for hurting big at times. People are people we should love, but never depend on them loving us back. Jesus is the one person that always loves us back BIG. Alex would be a good perfect picture of Jesus, if you saw how much he loved people all the time. He always seems to have money coming out of his ears. Once again one of those people that just naturally produce their own income with ease. Although he does seem to have a steady flow of moolaaaaa he works harder then any other 19 year old that I know. He got a job when he was I think 14, and had the highest sales. On the other hand I didn’t get a job tell I was 17, and I defiantly didn’t get highest sales.

I really love so much about my brother, and I think that sometimes he doesn’t see how great he truly is. How all the qualities God has given him are to not only blessing him but people around him. He is also one of the busiest people I have met, sorta like a businessman. Running a muck, and coming home for late TV and a bowl of cereal to top it off. I love seeing him when I do see him. He really brings out a part of me, that I usually try to keep hidden as well. I am very child ish, but I try to act mature and my age. But when me and alex do something together I turn into an 8 year old. I usually shout, and laugh and do ridiculous things. I think cause I just know that alex loves me for me, even if my actions embarrass him. : ) OH YES one other thing is his fashion. He is usually able to pull himself together in a short period of time while looking sharp. As for me I try to throw on a few things, and then ask him what needs to be fixed (its usually the shoes). I love that he keeps all the things that people give him, going back to how much he cares about people. He never wants to throw much away. I feel like, cause when he gives he gives from a true heart, believing that person will truly enjoy what he has given them. So when he receives something, that is what he does too. I really love the way my brother is, and I want him to never forget how much we all love him. My life wouldn’t be the same with out you little brother. You are great.

Happy 19th Birthday, wish I was there to blow out your candles before you do. Ha.

p.s. I am still providing the plastic forks and knifes for the party ;)
