I grew up with two of the most annoying, but most amazing and loving brothers. My older brother and I are 1 year apart. My younger brother is 7 years younger than me. My older brother has always thought he was the "coolest" because he was "older" by 1 year. Like OK it's not that "cool". But, I also learned how to do more things before he did, like tying my shoes for example.

Here are some signs that you know you grew up with brothers:

1. You are stronger than you ever thought you could be.

Thank you, brothers. All those wrestling matches in the living room have made me stronger than I ever thought I could be. Even if you try saying you let me win, I know for a fact I won fair and square every time, boys.

2. At some point, you have matched.

Thank you, mom, I always wanted to coordinate my Halloween costume with my brother!! But really, if at some time in your life you have never twinned with a sibling then you need to do it now.

Ever heard of 101 Dalmatians? Nah..

3.You ALWAYS had someone on your side.

No matter if it was my older brother or my little brother or both, I knew I would have them on my side no matter what. I get in a fight with a friend, well of course my brothers are going to be on MY side. Middle school or high school boyfriend broke up with you or you broke up with him, my brothers were on my side. If I ever got into a fight with my parents, my brothers would back me up and be on my side.

4. You always learn something from each other.

Yes, I learned how to tie my shoes way before my older brother. Don't let him tell you any differently. I also believe I learned how to ride a bike "better" than him. It made more sense when I was 7, ok. I also learn things from my younger brother. Yes, I really wanted to know how tall NBA basketball players, thank you for telling me.

5. You love them no matter what.

No matter what the situation or outcome is, you will always love your brother unconditionally. Even if you got into a huge argument or fight, you will make up. It's what brothers and sisters do. I wouldn't be able to do life without you guys. Love you crazy people.
