Rough Day

My brother and his family leave today for Italy. We've known for over a year this was coming but it doesn't make it any easier. While we have never been the closet of siblings we have always been there for each other when in need. It saddens me in a way that now that we both of families we aren't going to be near each other to share in watching them grow.

Adam calls me crazy, but I feel bad for not getting closer to my brother and his family now that they are leaving. I wish I would have visited them more (they were in NC the last 2 years). I wish I would have called more, emailed more... Just tried to have them be a bigger part of my life. A regret I have for my past, but something I can change for my future.

It isn't until someone isn't touchable, reachable do you realize how much they really mean to you.
