“Thank you for all the love and care you’ve shown my brothers. I didn’t even know how special they were. I’ll just walk with them and make jokes with them, not even knowing that God kept me in the presence of great people. 100% it’s hard for me, but I know it’s even harder for their parents (red heart emoji)
