Sibling Scandal
My brother, Father Aaron, was in town tonight for Father John's wake. After the wake he and I joined my brother Brian and his wife for dinner.
The four of us gathered at the restaurant around 8:00 and I just got home. I think we literally closed the place down. Between us, there was never a moment of silence. There were a lot of shared laughs and even some deep conversation.
As we all walked out to the parking lot continuing to chat away, I thought about how blessed I am. My brothers are my best friends. Tonight I thoroughly enjoyed our adulthood.
It was immediately after this thought that the image of the four of us sitting in the booth came to mind. On one side, a married couple. On the other side, a man in a Roman collar with a woman with the beginnings of a baby bump.
Uh oh!

Too funny! I laugh to imagine the scene!
But I know what you mean, though, about the pleasurable company of adult brothers. I just enjoyed a weekend with my oldest and his family, and it was so much fun.
It's funny the things you never think of until you're in that situation :).
