My brother

My brother:

• yelling above the crowd in Albanian at our daughters' soccer game (hopefully he wasn't cursing but no one really knows for SURE)
  
• using a blade of grass to make a horribly loud sound (the kind that makes you cringe,      hold your ears, and want to punch him)
  
• ability to preach a sermon that REALLY holds your interest 
• intellectual but kid-like
• fun uncle but weird brother
• distracted dad but great friend
• fabulous writer 
• addicted to fishing (my spouse doesn't think this is so bad)
• early riser (and pray-er)
• photography buff (pretty good, too)
• odd, crazy sense of humor (not all people understand or appreciate)
• uses sayings and gestures from other cultures so no one knows what he is doing
• chameleon and impersonator in language and culture (he's not really Cajun or Kosovar)
• cool but nerdy (OK, maybe not cool)
• loud
• pretty much indescribable but this is a start
• older than me, but significantly younger......
