Thank you for being my brother

Today is a year since my brother died. I so wanted to go to church but just my luck I have flu.

I remember how I cried last year, my family in England think I am unBritish for crying. I think it is alright to be me.

So Scott what has happened in a year I have far more compassion than I ever did. I sincerely hope I do, perhaps ask anyone but our family. The girls are getting taller, Katie's braces come off soon and she will be wearing glasses soon for reading.

Emily got her drivers permit. Me I learnt that somethings about me were not so bad, like loving the countryside and reaching out to others in need and that in it all of this year I loved you a lot. We may have lived a distance from each other but I never stopped believing for us both that better days would come.

I do believe with all my heart that you are in a better place and I am thankful for that. I cherrish the forget me not necklace that you gave me years ago and the small tins from your shop and brooches.

I am thankful for the wonderful memories that I look back with fond memories and I am thankful that one day I will see you again.

I will always love you, always remember you and always blessed that you were my brother

Thank you Lee
