I am glad to have been born into such a great and beautiful family, we are of five boys and no girl and then we have my mom and dad also. I am the fourth among the five boys in the family, our little one who is currently at the senior high level, my other two brothers who are both teachers, and our senior brother who’s an accountant.
Growing up with my brothers, we have always done everything together and we are best friends as well. In the beginning we all used to live in the same room as well, until my dad got the house expanded where each of us got a room for ourselves.
I have always counted myself lucky to be part of the five boys, there is nothing else I could have hoped for. One thing I love most about my family is that, we are able to have fun and playing games together. We could easily organize games tournaments and play among ourselves. As I said earlier, we do everything together especially playing video games. It’s always great memories when we’re all together at home from vacations.
As you know, it isn’t just all about having fun and playing video games together… there is sense of security and support from the elder ones. My big brothers in the house are always there to provide with any security since our parents are getting older, they try their best to make us feel safe in the house. Aside that, my elder brothers have always been at their best when it comes to providing for us the younger ones. They have made sure that we the younger ones will not lack anything.
They do everything possible to make sure that, at the end we will have a good education as well. The first thing i am asked about when I reach home from vacations, is my school fees and accommodation fees. That’s how they take care of things so that they can ease the burden on our parents. This is something one can only enjoy with several siblings, as an only child you would only be missing out on a lot of support and security.
With the good relationship I have with my brothers, I am able to express myself freely just as I would relate with my friends. This gives me the opportunity to seek their opinions and advice regarding certain issues ongoing in my life. They are always on the ready to listen to my personal issues and problems, and at the end help me understand and come out with a solution. I would say that my brothers are simply the best in the world. When I’m having a bad day or feeling sad, they are the ones there for me and I can easily confide with them.
At home there is always so much joy when I am with my brothers, that’s why immediately we are apart from each other we try our best to find time and call each other, from time to time just to check on each other. When it comes to festive occasions and gatherings, everything is left for the boys to take care off. This makes it easy to complete the workload and on time.
My brothers are my heroes, there’s nothing that I would be indeed of that they wouldn’t strive to provide for me. I have the opportunity to also share so many things with them, my little brother who’s growing much fast than me can easily wear my clothes and I can also wear my big brother’s. I am very happy and thankful to God for giving me such a beautiful family.
