Hej Hej, My Readers and A Happy early Birthday to My Brother, Michael! In Case, You did not know, This Week is My Brother, Michael’s Birthday. So, This Week’s Greeting comes with a Heavy Shocked Heart. A PTLS Family Member (meaning a Mom with a Child with PTLS) past away this past week. A Mom who We will call “Jenny from Sweden”, She Meant a lot to Us, here at The Christianville Spirit and The PTLS Foundation. Like PTLS Family Relation, Faith, Jenny helped the Foundation in a lot of Ways. She passed of Cancer. So, This Week’s Newsletter, My Greeting is dedicated to Her! Spread Love Everyone! and, Always Remember to make sure that Last Words You say to someone could be their last. I Love You all, PTLS Family Members and Readers!
Anyway, on a Lighter Note, Going into Part 2 of My Mini-Series about My Brother and His Birthday. This Saturday is Special Day in My Family! I like to think of it as The Only Reason that I celebrate The Month of October (besides Autumn Foliage) because after all, I Hate Halloween. That Reason of course, is My Brother, Michael. You See, Today is actually Michael’s Birthday and He turning 31 Years Old. Yes, I can’t believe it either. So, Let’s Sing to My Brother!
Haaapppy Birthday to You, You smell like a Poo (Just Kidding!); I Love You, My Little Brother, and You smell like One too! Now, Isn’t that Nice?! So, I finally decided to watch My Brother’s Speech that He did at The Conference. Come to Think of it, I am glad that I was not there to watch him do it Live because I feel like My Brother would have not been Comfortable being as Open with Me sitting there. I actually was Very Pleased as well as Proud of His Speech, it took a lot for Him to do that. Yes, There were times when I was touched by it but, I also laughed because I knew what He meant. There were Times that My Brother was Hilarious in The Way that He put things. Of Course, There were Times when My Brother was Serious and Proud and followed it with a Purely Michael Joke. It was Amazing! By The Way, if You do not know what I am talking about, Refer to Last Week’s Newsletter. It seems like The Answers given in The Interview that I did with Him are similar but, at The Same Time, His Speech is a lot more Heart Felt. So, for Part 2 of My Mini-Series, I am going to Rerun a Newsletter about a Prequel, if You will, to The Interview with Him. I titled it “My View, My Brother”. Enjoy and Happy Birthday, Michael!
This Newsletter was Originally written on June 3rd of 2012 (Refer to Newsletter 304)
So, I know quite a few PTLS Family Members wonder how both, the PTLS Child and their Brother or Sister views them. Well, I think it’s overdue that I tell you how I view My Brother and write about My Brother. My Brother, Michael, my only brother I have in My Family, is really awesome. For those who are wondering, Yes, he is my blood brother. Anyway, My Brother is awesome because he takes care of me and understands me. He is 23 Years old and goes to University of North Texas, he is an artist, a good one at that, and he is going to get his bachelors degree in Art. Michael is a really goofy guy once you get to know him and there are sometimes we wish we had hidden cameras in our house because he’s that goofy and he makes us all laugh. He puts that saying, “Dance like no ones watching” to a new meaning. He is a good judge of character when it comes to meeting new people and he has interesting views when it comes to the news, politics, and life. One of the things I love about him is that he was and still is caring and loving enough to introduce me to some of his friends. After they get to know me and who I am, they treat me like I’m part of the pack and wherever they go, I go with them. It was like that a lot in High School, he was my driver in a way because he drove me to and from school during the school year, unless he had to go to school early, then, My Mom would take me. In Elementary School, We and the Herricks would walk to school sometimes, most of the time we would drive. It wasn’t that far from the house, only a couple blocks. Michael’s Art is one thing that I’m very proud of him for because it really makes you think and wonder. Sometimes, My Mom will interpret it one way and I’ll say, “Art is subject to ones own interpretation.” Also, this past semester in College, My Brother got straight A’s, a 4.0 Grade Average, and He’s gotten on the Dean’s List twice. The classes that he was taking that semester were very tough classes, to the point where he had to do a project every week or every other day; so, I was very proud of him when I heard that. My Brother has always treated me with the greatest of care, protection, and treats me like every other kid, he doesn’t make a big deal about being a brother to someone with Special Needs. He will one day be My Guardian and I know that he will do a good job at it. Also, I know that whatever I do, he’ll help and love me. All in all, My Brother, Michael is an awesome brother that I have.
Thanks for Reading The Christianville Spirit. I hope you have Family that will there for you, no matter what.
