Pinches, Yells, Hits, Cuddles, Little I Love You...
Happy Birthday To My Little Brother
Who Turned 17 Years Old!
One of my brothers is now 17 years old. Almost considered an adult, and yet I still see him as a baby... I know parents have the feeling, but I'm close to my brother and I can't see him as an adult yet! I'm not ready for it! Seventeen years of age isn't a big deal, I've gone through it a couple years ago, it didn't change who I was, stayed the same!
Emi, little Emi... He is taller, stronger and amazing, but before I'm telling you all about how wonderful he is... Let's talk about how he was as a kid, because, if you have siblings yourself, you'll know that it's a love/hate relationship that goes on and on.
We grew up together, raised by my mum, and the friends we had were siblings themselves. So my best friend had a sister who happened to be my brother's age and his best friend. Cute, right?
Emilian was a silent little-introverted person who loved to play around with his friends, make up songs, pretend to eat spiders so they would end up being Spider-man. He wanted to work with cows when an adult even invented a name for his future job. Thanks to the countryside, we didn't have much to do than being at my friend's house which had a farm with animals. I don't know how much time we spent there between helping with the animals, looking for hiding spots, and run around with the dogs at their grandparents' house.
My brother and I had to go through a lot together, he mostly saw the good, thanks to his optimistic side. I may have to protect him a lot more than I should have, but that's how we became stronger. We are a team with a bunch of fights, an incredible amount of insults thrown out just because we are pissed at each other... But at the end of the day, when my dear brother has to go back in Europe, I can't stop worry, text him even if he barely reads any of them.
Siblings have an odd relationship where each one of them has a certain role, a certain task around the house. I'm the oldest, more responsibilities than everyone, and Emilian happens to be the "middle" child. There's a big gap between the youngest one so he is pretty much a youngster.
Without saying anything, you have to realize that my brother happens to be very closed to communication, he barely talks and would prefer to talk to people he feels comfortable with.
All I know is that without my brother to bug around, yell out, I would be quite lonely! I'm proud of having a little genius like him as my brother, I wouldn't exchange him in millions of years.
I love you

Christmas Miracle... Did it happen?
Christmas is over, our stomachs are full, and the excitement of the last few days is slowly calming down as the New Year approaching fast...
I'm a fan of Christmas in general, the food, the decorations, the Christmas tree, the music, the films, the moments spent with loved ones... And that Christmas miracle, the one I wait impatiently each single year!
Since I was little, I was a bit too excited over Christmas, the cold weather, the warm hot chocolate, the movies, and that famous Christmas Miracle. Each year, a few Christmas Miracles happens throughout the world, between a family rescue, a couple adopting a child or even as finding a shelter to a lost kitten. Hearing about Christmas Miracle always made me think about my own Christmas Miracle... And as a hopeless romantic that I am, always watching these Christmas Romantic movies who always happen to have that Christmas Miracle that surrounds love, I wanted to have my own. Since then, each year, I wish to get that miracle, the love that may happen on that day! But I always get my hopes up for no reason. Each year is a lost cause! Which now, I laugh at. I don't take it as seriously as before, good news on that point, but it's still a little pain that grows inside of me. Being a hopeless romantic kind of sucks! I'm sure there's plenty of you that had that Christmas Miracle happen in your life either it was receiving a puppy for Christmas or getting rescued from a crash or even finally seeing your grandparents on Christmas Eve...
This year's Christmas Miracles have been coming through quickly, one by one.
A sheriff's official rescued a family near the Grand Canyon who had being lost in the forest, caught in a snowy blizzard. The family was separated, but the rescue was done smoothly enough to get the family back together, getting everyone treated for cold hands injuries and others. One story that people call a Christmas Miracle! Driving in the snow is quite dangerous and each year, we hear stories about family getting stuck in blizzard not finding their way back... This time the family made is all alive, back together as a family!
Another story that touched me was when I read that "Santa" came in a classroom close to Christmas and asked a boy what he wanted for Christmas. The little boy responded by an X-Box and his dad who had left on Easter day for a mission in Kuwait. His father is a marine, and the little boy wanted to see his father for Christmas. Next thing you know, the "Santa" started taking off the beard, the hat, the costume. The little boy realized that it was his father and not a stranger. "Santa" had let the Marine come home early and surprise his son at school. A Christmas Miracle for this little boy who will be able to hug his father on Christmas day!
A sweet caring story between a couple made me realize that life may be short. The couple, not too young, were feeding their horses when the husband falls with a massive heart attack. The wife runs on her broken foot to do CPR on her poor husband until the paramedics arrive. They come 17 minutes later to take the husband to the nearest hospital when the husband get taken care of. Coma, bruised eye from hitting his elbow as he fell, memory loss for sure... He survived. They said it was because of the fact that his wife did CPR on him increasing his chance of survival. A Christmas Miracle! They got to see most of their children who flew to see their father alive!
Miracles happen, no matter how small or big they are. I know that somehow I did receive a Christmas Miracle, I had my little brother on the phone on Christmas morning! My brother had flown back to Europe for Christmas to see our father, and usually, he cannot calls or get the internet making our connection being almost inexistent! I'm quite the worry type of person so when my brother leaves to Europe, I worry, constantly, making me lose a great amount of sleep each time! This time, I got to hear his voice and a smile was brought back to my face! Siblings fight, have a love/hate relationship, but you can't deny the love that surrounds them. I know I can't deny the love I have for my brother, I'm his rock and his just my annoying taller bug that I love to annoy. I may have not got that love miracle, but I got my brother on the phone. I got to hear him say I love you when he barely tells it to me. It may seem small, but it's a huge deal for me!

It "LITERALLY" flew away!
Wednesday 22nd of June...
My younger brother flew back to France and as usual, I was ... SAD! I always expect it to be difficult to say goodbye, but this time, it is two months of not seeing him so it will be hard!
As the day went by I was thinking to myself that he might have taken a few things that belongs to me like coffee or my tea or even one of my shirts (yeah I steal his jackets and he steals a few things of mine sometimes just to bug me, he usually just lets it hang around his room until I figure out something is missing...) I was partially right! I am missing a scarf (not that I will need it as it is summer time now), my little square thingy to plug my phone charger (yeah I might have lost it, so I'll blame him cause he isn't around to defend himself for the crime that he might not have committed) and are you ready for the most unexpected object he took... Honestly, I never thought he would take it! NEVER!!! It never occurred to me that someone would take it, that is just unexpected!
It's almost midnight when I go to the bathroom to brush my teeth as I was eating too much chocolate, my teeth needed to be cleaned up! No one wants to deal with bad teeth, no one! So I reached for the toothpaste and my toothbrush. The toothpaste was fine, even though I had to climb on the toilet to get to it... And then came the toothbrush. No, I didn't get it, I was high enough to reach it, as usual, sadly, I couldn't see it. I looked for 5 minutes, around the shelf, and the cabinet, nothing. I mean NOTHING, no sign of my beautiful blue toothbrush! I declared that the famous toothbrush that had been cleaning my teeth every day and night for the past two weeks had disappeared on me. I thought maybe the wisdom tooth had scared the living hell out of it, but no, my dear brother had taken the liberty to "borrow" my toothbrush. MY BEAUTIFUL BLUE TOOTHBRUSH! The name of this post justifies what happened to my dearest toothbrush, the one and only who took the time to clean my teeth for a sad short period of time! This is traumatic, it is heartbreaking to know that I had to move on and say goodbye to my blue toothbrush, the beautiful toothbrush! Instead of crying like a baby over a toothbrush and seeing the time (too late to buy another one), I decided to look around the entire house for a new toothbrush! It took me over 20 minutes to find one, and it wasn't even a good looking one. I'm stuck with a green looking toothbrush, like what the bloody hell is that! I hate green and my brother for stealing my blue toothbrush! I'm planning on holding it against him, so now I better receive my football jersey or else he has lost his wallet (if I even find it in his messy room, that might take two months to discover the wallet, especially not knowing what it looks like.) My toothbrush has been flying across the ocean and land for more than 10 hours, and hopefully, it survived the dangerous trip in the suitcase next to the deodorant!
Anyways, I'm pretty sure I will be discovering a few things that
are missing from my room or bathroom! If he took my camera or
something like that, he will go back to school with a black eye! He
will be saying "Hello" to the icepack! I will be expecting my
football jersey with patience now, especially after this horrible,
terrifying experience with my lost toothbrush that flew to Europe!
I'll have to update you on the missing objects if I discover them!

Each time, there's a list that I give him to buy and bring back! Most the time I never get anything back except maybe chocolate and him obviously. This time, I asked for a football(soccer) jersey, hopefully, I will get it! Let's have faith for once!
