Growing up as the only child for seven years, you can imagine the shock I experienced when I had to share everything with my new little brother. Not only that, but two more to follow just 12 years later. While I love all three of the little ones, they tend to push some buttons at times.
1. When you tell them to ask your parents something and they mention your name when asking.
Then you're just sitting there, wondering why they would have sacrificed all you had worked for to get some Taco Bell for the family.
2. When all of their small and peculiar friends start coming over and you just hide in your room to avoid them all.
Because, in all reality, no one wants to be around a load of kids high off sugar and watching their first scary movie.
3. When you find them in your room going through all of your make-up and all other valuable things.
Excuse me small child, I paid $50 for that eye shadow pallet. Please stop throwing it...no, don't touch that either.
4. When your parents yell at you for something they did, and they say nothing while it happens.
Okay dude, you just wait. I'll get you back.
5. When your mom says all of your names before she finally gets to yours (and it's still a mixture of all of them put together).
Max-Math-Mas? Okay, whichever kid you are come here.
6. And as much as you hate to admit it sometimes, you couldn't live life without them, and you love them endlessly.
Because no matter how much they get on your nerves, they'll always hold a place in your heart.
