My Brother Eric

My Hero is my brother, Eric, because he is always there for me. (He is 3 years older than I am.) Even though he sometimes gets on my nerves I still like him. My brother is always there for me. My brother cares for me whether I want him to or not. My brother not only tries to help me, he tries to help other people too.

When I was 3 he got a bully away from me because I beat his high score! (That bully was about 9 or 8 years old.) My brother can have his “moments” but I think having moments is sometimes good because that way you’ll be confident. My brother tries to help me when I am stuck. Whenever I get hurt he comes and tries to help me.

One of the reasons I chose my brother is because he doesn’t like violence! Even though he sometimes is rough.

On one day when my friend, Ayanna, and I were in the creek it is in our backyard and he was checking on us. But I think he only looked every now and then.

My brother is a good hero, and a good brother even when we fight!
