ode to br

This one requires homework. (Did I mention these were an eclectic mix?)

The story goes that naming me with a “br” name was sort-of incidental to the fact that my older brother was already “Bryan”. Mom and Dad just liked the name “Brent”. Then this baby sister shows up, so naturally we had to continue the naming tradition.

In searching for a name, we canvassed the English language for all words BR before agreeing on a short version of “Sabrina”. This track is a tribute to that search. But it doesn’t stop there. Decode the poem for a special message to Brina as she comes into her own. Here’s the worksheet. First one to post a reply with the correct translation gets a gold star on their forehead.

mom don’t like

Mom thought “You guys, you’re gonna wear out the carpet” was sassy.

It’s actually a Lord Family Classic, right up there with “Keep the overhead down” and “front butt”. This track is for all the parental refereeing required with two bratty brothers who pick on their little sister.

payback

It’s brina.22 today. A fitting time to post the first two tracks in a series of 6 that comprised our contribution to Mom’s 21st birthday present project for her.

She sent dozens of family and friends a blank scrapbook page, with instructions to personalize that page in a way that was meaningful to Brina’s first 21 years in their life. Poems, photo collage, whatever…and send it back in time for her to assemble and present on her big day.

So, our page had a CD sleeve attached. In it, a personalized collection of 6 rather eclectic songs inspired by memories growing up with my little sister. Enjoy.
