And it's mom and sis-down-front that are feeling uncomfortable. And I think it's likely a gift from them to make up for all of the over-mothering and dressing-up in girls clothes that older sisters attempt to make younger brothers do. But sister in back is looking across the room at either husband or father making fun of the whole situation. You're right: LherAO. <br><br>The gift itself? <br><br>Based on the apparel choices of mom and sis-down-front? I'd guess an accessory of some sort. A pin for the sweater vest? <br><br>Or maybe personalized stationery?<br><br>But baby bro ain't havin it. Check out the look on his face again. It's somewhere between "Jumpin-Jesus on a pogo-stick, can't you just leave me the fuck alone?!?" and "Well, it's a nice gift, but WTF?!?" with maybe a little "Dad, I'm gonna kick your ass after dinner for laughin' at this."hubbynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3465642626648012553.post-75144692240717294392007-11-17T08:44:13.000-05:002007-11-17T08:44:13.000-05:00Oh I see your sentiment (and share your love of qu...Oh I see your sentiment (and share your love of quotes within quotes and Red Envelope envy).<br><br>It annoys the crap out of me though...because the mother is smiling fondly at her son, prominent in the front, clearly the center and focus of the family out of apparently three offspring. Meanwhile, the girls, set behind and below, play along with a family dynamic that probably makes them ache or seethe inside at times, especially holidays.<br><br>I could just be projecting, though. ;)<br><br>As the mom of girls from a family of girls and boy.<br><br>It is an appealing picture, when I set my own Issues aside. ;)<br><br>Also it makes me LOL because the boys I know? Leave the gift buying to the wives and sisters, so it makes me LOL again knowing brother probably feels a little uncomfortable trying to figure out how to explain all he did was send his share of cash to his sister, behind him, LHerAO.<br><br>WOW am I on a reel or what LOL at me.<br><br>Also, I would not turn down money or products from Red Envelope, for model posing or prosy prosing.<br><br>Julie<br><a href="http://theartfulflower.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow" rel="nofollow">Using My Words</a>juliepipperthttp://juliepippert.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
