Today, as you can tell by the header, is my little brother Buzz's birthday. He's 25 today, an old old man!!! He's my youngest brother and the baby of our family of four kids. His real name is Adam but when he was born he had peach fuzz for hair so my dad called him Buzzy and it stuck until about high school when everyone else started calling him by his real name, but lucky for him, all us family still think of him as Buzz. In fact when someone calls him Adam it sounds really weird. He's younger than me by seven 1/2 years so I remember when he was a wee little baby and I think I even changed his diaper a few times.
So since I'm the big sister I have a few other embarassing moments I'd like to share (hee hee hee). When he was little, my sister and I would dress him up as a girl and call him buzzawina (I think we secretly wished he was a sister instead of a brother). This early experience might explain his cross-dressing tendencies (just kidding).
Another of my favorite Buzz stories happened a few years ago when he went fishing wit my other brother, Alan, and Alan's father-in-law. They were doing some deep sea fishing off the coast of Florida when Alan's father-in-law went to cast his line and instead of catching a big mammoth fish he caught Buzz's lip. Can you say YEEEEOOOOWWWW!!!!! Luckily before they went to the ER to have it removed they sent a camera phone picture of it. Being sick like I am, I thought it was hilarious (believe me he would have laughed if it had been me). So happy birthday Buzz and may this year be the best! Love you!

Happy Birthday Buzz!!!! I have always wondered how he got that nickname, and it is weird even when I hear him called Adam. I always think they are talking to my adam:)! And if I'm not mistaken, it was his lip that caught the hook from my dad's cast and I know he still feels bad about it to this day!
