Matthew Sean is my little brother. Yes, forever my “little” brother.

Throughout childhood, he would play Barbies with me for 1 hour. In exchange, I had to play aliens with him for 1 minute. He’s a good giver of time.

At 3 years old, when he wore his dress coat for Christmas photos, he would not talk the entire time he had it on. I guess he thought he was too cool. He’s self confident.

At about five years old he would gear up like Batman and believed he BECAME batman. He believes in dreaming.

At six years old, he thought being my slave was a fun game. He’s sweet.

At seven he sacrificed himself himself against a Great Dane to save my Big Bird stuffed animal. He’s brave.

In high school, he thought embarrassing me in the high school hallways, could not be more hysterical. He’s funny.

At seventeen, he committed and later joined the United States Air Force. He’s a hero.

It is for all these reasons, and so many more, that I know he will be the most AMAZING husband for you Jessi! Watching the two of you fall in love, manage life and just be you — has been nothing short of a blessing. I LOVE YOU!
