Yes I know, I am assumed to be my girlfriends’ future husband, a hopeful assumption. On Christmas Eve I had the privilege to meet most of my girlfriends’ family. We all have imaginations that often fail us; and I can say that this Christmas, mine has failed me miserably. I had no idea what it is like being the only girl among three brothers. My thoughts of being a big brother to an only sister would be something of a wild animal protecting the young in its pack, but no. I discovered that this case has proved opposite. My girlfriend interacts with her siblings the same way most do… They love each other very much. I have met all three brothers, and they have introduced and welcomed me with pride. I guess it is natural to be nervous when meeting new family. They all seemed very nice to me, but watched me closely.
The ice was broken during the gift exchange; it is funny how much you can tell about a person by the gifts they give.
