When I was younger I used to read all the time.Mystery and romance novels were my favorite and fiction books fascinated me. Even though they were just fiction, I would always hope that maybe some of the fiction would be reality.
I am rereading a series by Dee Henderson called "The O'Mally Series". Its about a bunch of former orphans who decided they were going to be a family. The people are all grown up and each one has a story to tell. There are 7 children and each one has a role. The oldest is called "The Guardian" because he is overly protective of his family. The other ones have different names like "The Protector", "The negotiator", "The Rescuer", etc. The point of the books aren't the names, but how they represent each character's personality. Yes, it is just fiction, but I wonder if there is any reality to it.
I've always wished I had an older brother/brothers. Reading the "O'Mally" series made me think about it again. How cool would it be to have older brothers who were all those things? One who acts as the Guardian so you never get her. One who protects you, rescues you.
I decided when I get married and have kids, I want at least 2 boys to be the first kids. And then a girl. So that way they can always protect their little sister from harm. Be someone that she can always lean on and trust. Someone who will scare away the boys, hurt the ones who hurt her, and defend her when she needs it. Sometimes I envy those who have older brothers, but sometimes I don't. I love my little brothers and sisters,and I like looking our for them and protecting them. Sometimes I just wonder what it would be like to have an older brother.
