**My Little Knight in Shinning Armour**


April 24 was the big day! Boy or Girl? Soon a phone call came in from my mom, my brother and I stayed home from school that day to wait for the news. It’s a Boy! When my family came home with my new brother I’ll admit I was scared and nervous about holding my new brother. I have five brothers and zero sisters, but this is a story about the youngest brother.

His name is Gerald; just like every sibling around the world they have awkward questions, funny personality, and caring hearts. You talk to a girl or in my case a boy and the first question to pop out his mouth is “Is that your boyfriend?!” The times I hated the most when my brother was little was when he had bottles, bottles that turned to cottage cheese under the bed and in the toy box. Push when making a bottle; it always had to be rushed, if not you end up with a mad baby.

Then there are those time when I was grateful to have another brother, I was able to teach new things all over again. Play catch, flip on the trampoline, and even role play characters from the movies. Funniest memory I have of my brother, is him sitting on my mom’s lap driving down the driveway, tuning the radio to pick a song to drive to.

I love my brother, and I’m glad he came into my world.
