he really doesn't like it much when i say baby bro - he is taller than me
and he's always protects me
and watches out for me...no matter what.

and he never wanted us to worry - even when we watched televisions shows
like cops or when he would tell us stories of him charging into dangerous situations.
he knew what he was doing.

he knew what he was doing.
and later when he became an instructor at the academy, we breathed a little sigh of relief...
and now...baby bro retired from the force.
and we're so proud.
proud of his service and making us safe
from the bad guys.
proud of his teaching of the next generation of people keeping us safe.
and when they presented him with the badge, weapon, gold watch and all the certificates.
i know others were proud of him too. even when they were not here to say it.
and now he's on to his next 20 at some place new...
doing what he really loves...
teaching others how to keep the world safe.
xoxoxo - love you
(but you will always be my baby bro)
