Hello,
-What an endearing story.
-There is humour, antics and kids being kids.
-Delightful characters.
-I like the camaraderie you show through tone and voice.
"He's not heavy, he's my brother" stance.
Loved the tales. Good luck on your entry.

I loved your story. Your brother was so real in the way you told it, he was definitely someone I would have loved to meet. It's nice to have our memories of our siblings as we get older.

    My brother and I are fortunate to have such a special relationship. One stronger today than when we were kids.

Wow. What a story! However, it's great that you guys could make up, and that you are best friends today.
I find too many siblings hold a grudge far beyond the expiration period, and keep the family apart.
Good story, I hope you did well in the contest!

    My parents had three boys. I was the youngest. My poor mother. We were all good kids, but all boy. Always into things.

Brotherly love is a fine thing. I'm glad you and your brother are still close. It doesn't always happen that way.

Best of luck at the polls.

Peace, Lee
bad track record watching me in the past.--Suggest you drop 'in the past'. 'Track record' means essentially the same thing.

Johnny could not have had a better brother.--did you mean to write this twice in the same paragraph?

This is a good story about you and your brother. My best stories are of me and my sister, so I can relate. You wrapped it up nicely at the end when he shared his drink and you always tell the story. Keep up the good work. :)
