Having Two older Brothers

There are a couple things that you need to know about having two older brothers. Sometimes it can be all fun and games. Other times it is survival mode, every girl for herself. I would say having two brothers is not for the weak.


My falls and my summers constantly consisted of me going to football, baseball, and basketball games. No matter what I would be dragged along. “Seriously, I wanted to go swimming in the pool today” I would tell my mom. The obvious response was “Nope, we are all going”. But whenever I had a recital, a concert, or a school activity they were never forced to come. I guess that's what I get for being the baby of the family, you just have to go with the flow.


Never and I mean never pick a fight. I have a slight feeling that may be as to why my hair is so thin. I never stood a chance against either of them. Especially when they got a hold of my hair and would not let go. The only thing that I had going for me was my nails, that was my escape route.


Always make sure that you have something over them. It can come in handy, especially if you need a ride to a friend's house or want to go get ice cream. However, you want to make sure that you use it at the right time, otherwise it can backfire on you. And especially make sure that they don’t have anything to throw at you.


Having two older brothers is definitely a challenge at times, but I would say that it has made me a stronger person (both mentally and physically). In short: go with the flow, don’t pick a fight, and always hold something over them. With all this being said I would never (even though I have in years past) wish to have older sisters instead of brothers.

Having brothers is a love hate relationship when you are the only girl. But I wouldn't change a thing.
