a frown after a picture that took too long
a lawn mower with a name after staying with grandma
go carts and camping
trips to the creek
teaching me how to catch a tad pole
darts in the barn with Eric
car rides with Julie after she got her license
I sat in the back since I was younger
although for a while you couldn't tell by the height difference
even still your nickname for me was shorty
ski trips with all the boys
drawing names for gifts at Thanksgiving
sharing those gifts at Christmas
Easter egg hunts with quarters to gain
a windy graduation party
weddings and swords
my memories with you are more than a jumble of words
they're a joyful childhood filled with family
I'm glad we shared them together
