My Little Ones

Hey Andrea~
I can’t believe you’re celebrating your 15th birthday!
Happy birthday my beloved sister, Andrea!
Ever since you were little, taking care of you has been a pain in the butt.
I still remember the times when you have always had this thing with not smiling, and I was always the one who had to cheer you up.
It is really nice having you as my sister.
Now that you’re a freshman in high school, you have completely changed and become more independent.
I am not good writing these long and heartfelt paragraphs as I am normally a brother of few words.
You’re a year older and I know for a fact that you can accomplish and fight through any new challenges that may arise.
Keep your smile on and have a Happy 15th Birthday!
– Alex

今天和另一半在戲院裡等著看電影最後片尾,從手機裡看到兒子寫給女兒的生日感言,好險是在戲院裡,看完心裡好感動,兩個心頭寶真的長大了。

怎麼一溜眼的時間,小女生就已經成了個頭高過自己的大女孩,那個拖著兩只長襪,對著哥哥說著:「葛格,幫我~~~」而一副大哥模樣的兒子也會對著妹妹說:「等我先穿好就幫妳!」

女兒話說得遲,兩個到幼稚園時,兒子更是表現出代理人模樣,逢人就說:「我妹妹不會說話,你跟我說就好了。」讓我們覺得是又好氣、又好笑。

開車接放學也好,下了課進家門也是,進門的第一句總是問:「哥哥呢?」「妹妹咧?」彷彿是約好似的。

兩人年紀相仿,長的又像,被誤認是雙胞胎已經不是一次兩次,當然,他們也像其他家的兄弟姊妹一樣,吵架、鬥嘴,互相嫌棄、批評一下對方,但是我知道,那都是逞口舌之快的孩子氣心理,無非是想讓自己佔上風罷了。

在女兒的生日這天,看著窗外山頭出現的陽光,我知道,家中的這兩個寶貝會一路的相互扶持、陪伴彼此直到永遠永遠。
