I have taken care of my baby brother from day one since he were born. I was so excited and so happy to meet him. I take care of him like noone else. I changed his diaper, feed him, change his clothes, carry him around and when he became bigger around 1 nad half years of age he started to talk with me which even more grew love and fond of him in me. I played with him, spent time together, feed him, went to play with him outside.
