About a month and a half ago, my brother got married adding to my constantly growing number of in-laws. I now have two brothers-in-law and three sisters-in-law (if you count my brother-in-law's first wife). I know that I'm supposed to feel like I gained a sister, but I feel more like I lost a brother. That's because, although he didn't call a whole lot before he got married (due to the long hours that he works), he NEVER calls now. What a drag.
You'd think after growing up in the same house with someone for 15 years (I'm three years older than him, so I left when he was 15), they would call at least sometimes, right? Wrong. My sister got married last year and I actually felt like I was gaining a brother then. Must be something about when the sons get married, they actually join their wives' families. That seems backwards.
Anyway, that's neither here nor there. I miss my brother. I'm happy that he's started his own family, but I'm sad that he no longer seems apart of our family.
