Is pretty great.
I haven’t talked much about my b-I-l, that’s brother-in-law for those not in the know. I know I’ve mentioned him in posts, ACS, but I haven’t told you much about him and what he means to my family.
I remember when my sister first brought him home, I wasn’t sure about him, but come on, I’m the big sister and no one is ever good enough for my baby sister. We happen to be the same age, well, for a few months we are, born the same year, he’s January and I’m September, so same age for a few months, but I still call him my baby brother, he’s married to my baby sister, see how my logic works?
I have to tell you, he is a great father. He’s loving and silly with them and firm when he needs to be, he loves them and they adore him, you can see it on their faces and hear it in their voices.
When it comes to my sister, there is no one better to take care of her, after me and our dad, of course, wink wink, but he has been amazing, especially over the last year and a half. He went to every single doctors appointment, treatment, procedure, you name it, he was there, sitting by her side when he could and keeping the rest of us informed, a very important job.
He is a generous person and very popular with his friends, many of them from childhood. The joke is that everyone we meet went to camp with him, I always ask, but the reality, he lives in the town he grew up in and a lot of the people we meet, he went to camp with. He is someone who works hard and people know they can depend on.
The reason I am telling you all of this is, yesterday, he did something really nice, which he does, but it helped me out a lot. I had that appointment with the GI in the morning and it had been snowing and when I came outside, he had cleared off his car so I could take it. Even clearing it off before he left for work, moving the other car so I could get out and then he went back for MGS so they could leave for school and work.
He helps a lot of people and they appreciate it and yesterday, for me…props to him.
