Happy Brother's Day

Posted by tyan (Singapore, Singapore) on 19 May 2008 in People & Portrait.

Tyan's self declared holiday-happy brother's day to all!

This was taken June,last year.Ian was only 6 months and packing a punch and Caleb just turned 2 then.We went Vivocity where Caleb played in the waddling pool and this was taken at some coffee place.

The boys have definitely 'progressed' since then.It is no longer a 'parallel line' communication,but both of them have started interacting and playing with each other,as compared to Ian looking rather unresponsive here in the picture.

This picture reminded me of a picture that my husband took with his brother when they were kids. I have not seen the picture but Hub described it-his older brother kissing my hub's tiny feet-very heartwarming and something that my hub always remembered with fondness.Hope this picture brings back fond memories for Hub and Uncle Heng.Will post one if i ever 'catch' Caleb kissing his brother's feet!:)

This is so sweet Tyan, I hope your boy's (and brothers everywhere) enjoy the holiday you've lovingly created for them :)

Hi Babe! Thanks for your encouraging comments. I can't believe you'd write so much just to encourage me. I am very touched. I know you can fully understand how I am feeling about kids, work and life. It' been pretty difficult at times. Especially when my hubby is away for 5 weeks. I miss him for being there for me. I guess I just have to pull myself together for the kids sake.

So I'll come by to rant here often! haha! Hopefully that would pass the time :) BTW, I love this pic of the boys. Great display of brotherly love! Come by again soon! Do take care babe!

A really nice story; and so good that these brothers are finding each other's company increasingly fun as they both grow. Happy Brother's Day to Caleb and Ian, from my place in Florida, around the world.
