TWENTY.
He is no longer a teenager.
Honestly, I find it hard to comprehend that he is (for only a few more hours) a teenager, let alone is becoming (in only a few hours) a non-teenager.
I'd say adult, but I guess that's really when you turn 18, unless you want to be specific and say that you have a be a legal adult at 21 to be considered a true ADULT.
Anyway, back to the point.
This boggles my mind. I still think of him as this:
{Sorry, Ad-man. I just had to.}
He was always this annoying little boy that I could trick into trading me a dime for a nickel. Not only is he too smart for that now, but he is almost as smart as I am! I know, I know, that's hard to do. Side note: He learned how to be modest from me as well. I digress again.
Anyway, he is growing up. **TEAR**
But, you know, that is okay by me. He is so much funnier today than he was above. Unless, of course, you include laughing at his wardrobe in that picture :) Really, though, he is hilarious now. Just to give you an idea, one day I got this text from him: "Lani, I just saw a midget with a weed-whacker, and now I can't stop laughing. If you are going to say this is mean, go find a midget, give him a weed-whacker, and try not to laugh." See what I mean, folks? Hysterical.
[Insert all of the politically-correct objections to this joke]
I don't care. This is hilarious.
So, Ad, this post is for you, mostly because I didn't get you a birthday present this year. Before you say anything, you remember, I got you a real life giraffe for Christmas. That counts as three gifts at least.
My point, in all of this genius rambling, is to wish my precious baby brother a very happy birthday.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ADAM!!!
Love you, bud.
Awwww that was a very sweet birthday tribute, Lani!! We love you Ad and are so proud of you and yes, it IS hard to accept that you are TWENTY today which makes me....well, we just won't talk about that :-D
