Today I grew a little bit
I woke up and cooked for two of my favorite people
Sydney and Sebastian
You don't know the feeling to see them with smiles on their faces
When I walk into the room with pancakes and waffles
They're eyes light up
"BREAKFAST'
Today is sunday,
Church is today
After breakfast, we rest
And yes we rest as a unit
As I say when all four Martins' are in the same place
"MARTINS ASSEMBLE"
My dad laid out their sunday best
I got them dressed for church
And we went on to the church which is two doors away
(Talk about location, and the school is across the street from the church)
Church was fine
I dropped off Syd at children's church
Sebastian behaved himself quite nicely with me
He actually fell asleep
Which made me nod off a little bit (no disrespect to Pastor Gordon)
I got to see my friends I grew up with at the church
Which reminds me how old I feel (I'm 15, sometimes I feel 30)
I digress
We arrive home
I watch one of my fathers and I favorite movies
Finding Forrester
He says I remind him of Jamal Wallace, I guess I do
Now I continue on to what gives me a full circle feeling of accomplishment
I do reading work with my little sister
Now I tutored 8th graders for the NJ ASK state test, which was for Community Service
Yet tutoring your little sister is different
Much different
I read the book
She reads the book after
Then I write down some words from the book for her to do as well
She passes with flying colors
I feel like the undisputed big brother of the world
Standing at 5 foot 9
Weighing in at 160 pounds
The bestest big brother in the world (and yes bestest isn't a word)
But I leave you with this
No matter what you do
Do it with pride
And for me I do my brotherly duties with pride
This post is for Sebastian and Sydney
The Brain is the Brother
