I'm spending the day with my brother. {If you are new to my blog, he is fighting a battle against brain cancer.} Actually, I spend every Tuesdays and Fridays with him. We hang out together. I make him breakfast, we laugh and chat and we talk sometimes about serious things. Then we have lunch and go to a few appointments and then he usually takes a nap on our bed. Every once in awhile I have to pick him up off the floor too when he does his amazing "tuck and rolls". OK...maybe more than every once in awhile. He is actually working on getting a new wheelchair that will fit him better and be a little more light-weight for lifting in and out of the car. He is really fighting balance issues right now and the wheelchair is just a safer option at this point and becoming more of a necessity. And he is so funny, when he does tuck and roll, he just hangs out until someone comes to check on him. This morning I asked him why he doesn't just yell "Help, I've fallen and can't get up." He says he's just hanging out and relaxing! He really does have a great attitude about his life and trials right now. I am learning much from my little brother.
Anyway, back to the winner! He is sitting right here next to me and I said, "Pick a number between 1 and 25."
He picked 21! Go see if you won. Hope you enjoy for Liberty of London picture frame. Congrats!!
