Baby Brother




"I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living,
My baby you'll be."

Sometimes we fight.
But it's okay cuz I'm bigger than you.
Sometimes I bother you just for the fun of it,
To feel like a kid again.

I sit on you.
But then I remember that I am not bigger than you anymore.
You are bigger than me now.
So you try to hurt me.

But I laugh, because you fight like a girl.
I fight like a girl too.

I give you candy and you look at me suspiciously.
I offer you $10 to help me out and you are surprised when I pay up.

You are my baby
But you are not so little anymore.

Sometimes you are annoying,
But then you let me hug you in public.

Sometimes I can't stand you,
But then you email me to tell me you miss me.

I know you will grow up eventually.
I hope you will still miss me then.

Even when you are away at yeshiva,
Even when you are a famous rabbi or shliach,
Even when you find a beautiful girl to marry,
Even you have a baby of your own.

I hope you will still email me then,
Even if I laugh cuz you can't spell.

You will always be my baby brother.
And I'll always love you.
