Brother, can you spare an insult?

My only brother is in town. I hadn`t seen him in more than seven years, since the summer before we moved back to Tokyo. He hadn`t seen the big kids since they were tiny, and had never met Little Son until today.

He saw Daughter and said, "Wow, she doesn`t look like you at all. She`s really pretty!"

Yep, that`s the brother I remember. Nice to know some things never change.

Brothers are more clues less than our husbands.

There is simply nothing like the random insults from a sibling to put you in your place. How about another 7 year hiatus?
