Z + A = <3

My family has 6 kids.

 5 girls -me being the youngest

1 boy.

My little brother, Zach.

In our 6 child family, as with any big family (especially with 5 being girls),

we have Mama hens that watch over the younger chicks.

My older sister, Summer (11 years my senior) has been my Mama hen.

I have been Zach's.

This boy-now man- kept this Hen up many nights in the past.

He has been dealt a rough hand a time or two in his life

He hasn't always made the best decisions

He has fallen in and out of love with the Lord

We have been the closest two siblings could be

And we have never been farther apart.

Watching him in his uniform, holding hands with his wife, driving off to his honeymoon...

Just made me proud.

I'm proud he chose her...I'm proud he loves her....I'm proud he chose to honorably marry her and give her the wedding she deserved.

I'm proud he is my brother.
