I shared a bedroom with Scott for most of my childhood - until he went to college. I'll always remember Christmas eve and our anxiety. We would try to sleep but soon one of us would whisper - are you awake? If the answer was yes, then we would commence with what we called light and dark times. We would turn on the light and play quietly until we would become sleepy and then turn out the lights for the dark time. Sometimes Mike would join us from his room because he saw the light under our door. Scott was always fun-loving and active - and I love him now and forever.
What a precious memory, Steve! I never knew that. Siblings are the precious gift that parents give us and Mom and Dad did a good job at that. Who cares about fights, etc. that memory trumps all that.

I thought of him early this morning. Still hard to believe he's gone.
I miss him dearly. My almost birthday twin. 😍
