To the outside world, we all grow old. But not to brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were. We know each other's hearts. We share private family jokes. We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys. We live outside the touch of time. - Clara Ortega
This is not a very good picture, but it is one of my favorites. My second son was born on May 10th and my daughter, the youngest of four, was born on May 11th. Born in different years, there are nine years between them.
As time passes, nothing warms my heart more than seeing my children together and thoroughly enjoying each other. To listen to these two releasing age old secrets and constant teasing makes me very happy. They share a bond that hopefully will never be broken.
In Astrology, they are Tarus which means they are resourceful and productive which both of their successful careers reflect. They are both dependable, persistent and determined. They have been excellent teachers to me and I would not be who I am today without either one of them.
This son was the most difficult to raise out of three boys. He was extremely hyper and reveled in tormenting his three sibs while appearing to be quiet to strangers. He could be the most endearing child one moment and driving you crazy the next. The bond between us has never been about time and place, but rather a sense of having been connected all of our yesterdays and every tomorrow.
This handsome young man is married to a beautiful and intelligent woman. Together they have two amazing children who will surely make this world a better place. I am deeply proud of the man he has made of himself in spite of life's challenges.
