I remember a tiny baby two years old
A Minuit thing in a large bowl
But the bowl was special
St Patrick's Cathedral, Ireland
My grandson on a special trip baptized
In a very special baptism bowl
Sixteen years later we would return
This time the bowl tiny the boy six foot tall
Standing next to him his brother Ryan Patrick
Brent attended Cottage Lake elementary
Where in the sixth grade Brent was elected
as President of his class and his brother Ryan
was his protection voted as Officer of order
Brent always had a sense of humor one of his assets
One day he bought his sister and brother shirts
He took a picture of the two them and him in the middle
When they were allowed to open their eyes the shirts read,
"Thing one and thing two!" They do idolize each other
But the family has always been competitive each into sports
I the Nanny the best job I ever held timed them running around the house
Ryan would cry he was last Brent because he would never be as fast or
big as his sister. He does tower over her but as Dad says"
He may be bigger but his Sister can still out run him."
This is number one in a series on the boy who graduated
From High school and is about to follow his sister to college
