I remember when I was a child of about 10-12 years old my oldest brother was taking pictures around the house, for what reason I don't remember, and I was upset because he wouldn't take a picture of me. I was standing outside the back door of our house. There was a knock and I opened the door and there he was with the camera and took a picture of me.
To this day I don't understand whey I answered a knock on the door coming from inside the door while I was standing OUTSIDE the door. But thinking back on that I realize that my brother was trying to include me while making a joke.
I think this one I will name FUNNY and maybe even PROFOUND. Funny is self-explanatory, but profound is because years later I realize my brother always tried to include me when he could.
Growing up in the 60's and 70's our life wasn't perfect. We had more than some but less than most, but we never felt we were lacking anything. There were many times I just wanted to be with my brothers. They were quite a bit older than me (5 yrs & 8 yrs older). I didn't think so at the time but my brothers, especially my oldest one, tried to include me as much as possible. One word I forgot to add . . . Sweet . . . he could be so sweet at times!
