Thursday Thirteen

Thirteen Funny Things About My Brother 1. He can never sit still (I mean never. Even when he's in a chair, he's drumming on the arm or playing the piano in the air. I seriously believe this is why God called him to preach, if he wasn't going to sit still in church, God was going to use his constant moving for His glory.) 2. He spends more time getting ready than anyone else in our family. (It's not really his fault. He has been "blessed" with a cow-lick, so his hair takes a bit more taming) 3. He can make me laugh even when I'm so mad at him I want to cry. (This can be somewhat annoying but it's very endearing!) 4. He looks like me. (At least that's what everyone tells me, we both look like our daddy!) 5. He broke a tooth once when he raced across the entire house to try to be able to jump high enough to slap the highest door-jam in our house. He missed and hit the dresser. Mom wasn't too happy about this one. 6. He doesn't have a good running history with pets (he accidentally threw a kitten in the fire once, it was sitting on a small log, fortunately my dad was there to save it! He also locked a dog in our garage once, where our wood stove was and there was a lot of smoke. The dog got emphyzema and died, but the dog had a habit of hiding under stuff, so we think he had hidden under something. There are many more. None of which are really Ben's fault, but trust keep your animals clear of him!) 7. He can play any instrument he wants. (Piano, drums, guitar, even the clarinet in high school band, seriously this makes me sick because I can't play the radio without fuzz!) 8. He is addicted to diet Coke. (This is gross to me. Diet Coke is the worst drink in the world!!) 9. He is a great preacher. (He can even keep the attention of young kids, and he is very faithful to study the Bible to see what God has for him) 10. He has funk toes (really its just ingrown toe-nails, but he says that I have some funk disease because apparently I'm falling apart, which I didn't realize, but he did, I guess he's a doctor or something! Anyway, I had to say that I'm not the only one with "the funk"!) 11. The only movie that he has ever sat through completely that I like is "The Lord of the Rings" The only other movies he'll sit through are those with no plot at all (for example: "The Sponge Bob Movie") 12. He will always be my little brother, no matter how much taller than me he gets 13. And last but not least, he's one of my best friends (I'll tell you about my other one, my sister, next week!)
