We spent 5 days in Atlanta last week... and one of the highlights was my half-brother Blaine driving up from Macon, GA (with his cutie girlfriend, Logan!) to have dinner with us. Shortly before my dad died (20 years ago), he was remarried and had his long awaited son (he always wanted a son). They named him Blaine and wow... we were all so happy to have a baby in the family. Our dad died when he was just 8 months old, and right after his death my sister, mom and I moved back to Illinois, so chances to see Blaine were few and far between.
I saw him again when he was 2, 10, 15 and now 21!
He's grown into a handsome (has a very, very strong resemblance to our father), really kind and respectful young man! He's got his own lawn design and maintenance company and when the time is right he's like to become a fireman too! I was so grateful they made the trip up to see us... hopefully we'll see each other again before another 6 years go by!
