Lil Brother's Bornday

I can't believe this cat turns 27 today.

My brother Alonzo...

• I remember when I used to change his diaper
• chase his nekkid ass around the house to make him take a bath
• Play fighting and wrestling all the damn time
• us hanging out, thus keeping him off the corner
• moving into him and my sis' apartment in when they were in undergrad
• watching the crew cry at his high school graduation
• dropping his ass off at Northern Illinois University
• seeing the Sox clinch the pennant in 1993
• doing the super bowl thing each year (that's us cheering the Bears on in the SB above)
• seeing him fall in love
• standing at his side at his wedding
• being in the room when his first born was born
• witnessing him as a father on the daily - and do it right
• staring at him and Pops - marvelling at the resemblance
• just being his friend

I am proud to even know you man. Even prouder to know that you are the college grad, husband, father, brother, son, youngest supervisor on the job and grandson in the greatest definition. I am proud that you call me brother. It has been a surreal, but blessed experience to see you grow, I hope to live to see you pass all that you are to your great-grandkids.

I love you bruh...

Happy Birthday
