Being Proud

I love and looked up to as an older brother,
rather than a younger.
The way you stood up and spoke your mind,
I realized because they are older, doesn't mean 
we are under.
So because of you, I can speak out, keep my head up
and be proud.
Now my marriage is everything I"ve wanted,
we just had to delete the crowd.

Now you're married to a strong woman,
who will always be by your side.
Tell her everyday that you love her, look 
at her and take pride.
Keep the love strong.
There's ones who are against you.
Remember the word delete, they are
the ones who don't belong.

Keep it sweet,strong and loving.
Communication is the key.
Be the best husband and father
that you thought you'll ever be.

You know you are my favorite and 
I love you with all my heart.
My prayers goes out to your marriage.
Keep it together and don't let it fall apart.
