One of the things about living far away from my family is that sometimes the changes that go on in their lives don't seem quite real to me. My brother has a one-year-old. It still completely blows my mind, even though I've met him once. Well, maybe not the fact that the baby exists, but that my brother is father. That's what blows my mind.
Does anyone else experience these sorts of thoughts? Do you sometimes still look around you and think, "When did that happen?" Will there come a time in my life when I don't look around me and think, "Huh. How did I get here?"
Also, when did my brother-of-the perfect-vision get glasses?
And one more thing, isn't that little kid adorable?

The glasses were a very sad day in my life. Went to renew my DL and take the eye exam. I read the left side very quickly then stopped. The lady looked at me and said "You need to read the right side too." I was closing my right eye without even thinking about it. I tried several times, but gave up when the lady said, "I'll give you a hint, there are no numbers." I gave up, I guess that is why I was closing my right eye late at night when watching late night TV. Oh yeah... It surreal to think that Im a Dad sometimes for me!
A few years ago, we were leaving a soccer practice and I was walking behind my 2 older boys...and it dawned on me. How did this all happen? I have a seven year old, a 5 year old and a little baby boy. I concluded that life really was flying by and I needed to be careful that I didn't miss it.
Yeah. My baby brother is DOCTOR.
Oh yes. I do soooo understand. It only gets worse...
