I remember you telling me of Chucky a few times, though never laid out like this. What a tearful post here...and what a tribute to your little brother. It makes so much sense why you love children so much, and I wish I could have grown up with you and you could have been my friend who was more like a "big Sis" :)
You have a beautiful heart Taylor...thank you for the vulnerability to post something so deep as this.
I cried a bit both writing and proofreading it. I will gladly adopt you now, although with our current friendship you've been the one I admire and aspire to be like! 💓 It took a lot but it felt wonderful to share him with you all!
