My brothers Air Force Graduation!

This was such an emotional day! I was flooded with so much joy, pride and that feeling of he is not longer my baby brother! He went from shy and quite to being well know! Out going and the girls really liked him. LOL (If he ever saw this he would not be to happy with me) But really he grew up a lot in those 6 weeks. I am still emotional about it. Because he was also always around. Birthday parties, Christmas, Thanksgiving and all the other major holidays. Now he's not. He was the quiet presence that made a difference. He loves my kids. Played with them all the time and I just loved seeing him. I admit I took it for granted. Even though he talked about joining for a few years. I thought he would never go through with it. I am glad he did but it still makes me sad.
