Special Weekend for a Special Person
There is so much to write about…I don’t know where to begin.
I had a post all ready to publish on Saturday, but then I lost it because Papa wanted to use the computer.
Let’s hope I can rethink my words and put it in this post.
He’s so innocent, definitely known as the bhola-bhaala types (which he truly is
). As kids, I did everything he did and wanted everything he had.
The thing I always liked about him was that we always got along as kids, and he always got me involved with whatever he did.
His pasttime is to make fun of me. I think he has made the most nicknames for me than anyone!
His sense of humor is amazing, even at times when he’s making fun of me.
As a kid, he was the shy one, where I was the extroverted too-many-friends one.
Once he entered college, he just bloomed and now he’s at a position where only good things can happen for him. His circle of friends is more wider than mine, and he is so well liked by everyone.
He loves sports and that too all kinds.
I get my athleticism from him because as kids we would play all sports from baseball to soccer to basketball to golf. Even today, we play these sports whenever we get the chance.
Saturday was his 24th birthday. His friends were over, and we played table tennis for six hours!!!!
I was on the winning doubles team!
Sunday we took him on a picnic and surprised him as my cousins from Chicago also came.
I just wanted to say:
You are the best brother a sister could ever ask for!
Thanks for always being there for me.
Alvida. Jai Mata Di.

Oh, A Gemini! Belated birthday wishes to him! Did you know that Geminis are born intellectuals ;-)

Thanks Kaush.
Aaise mauke nahi milte aur kehti nahi hoon enough mere bhai ko woh mere liye kya hai.
Thought this would be a great way to do it (even though he doesn’t even come to the blog
).
Yup a Gemini Anand.
I didn’t know that they were born intellectuals, but I think that only applies to the female Geminis.
Just kidding.

So you were one of those brothers that bothered their sister alot, eh?
Good to see that you have started to have that fun and enjoying relationship with your father.
You are right Tanya about the fact that you know the importance of your sibling when you are far away from them.
You are a Gemini eh Kaush?
Cool! Then that saying was for you that I said above, even though I said it without knowing.

Happy Birthday to Suraj:!:
(I hope the name is correct, as nowhere mentioned here to verify)
When I started reading your post, I thought you are writing about your father, as you made mention about him in the start. But I was stunned, when I saw age 24
Then I went to the end of the post and confirmed whom you were talking about
