Josh
Thursday, August 2, 2007
Family is what gets you through the tough times. I never really thought about having a brother, but now that I have one... I am so grateful. He's got my back, and I'd fight any dragon (Greenlee) for him. Talk to me about your brothers out there. What are they like? Mine is tenacious, cool and the best medicine for a crisis.






I don't have a brother! I've always wanted one. Yours is amazing. Watching him sing to little Ian was priceless. Consider yourself a very lucky girl.

Kendall,
It took me a while to warm up to Josh because of some of his past misdeeds (drugging Erica causing her to stab Zach) and more recently injecting Zach with truth serum. I must say he really has stepped up to be the brother that you deserve. Loved how he is trying to take care of you and Zach and his singing to Ian. He's definitely got some Kaneness going on there, although I don't think Ian is going to be begging for Uncle Josh's greatest hits...IJS.
Sadly, my only sibling and brother died almost a year ago too soon for his age. By the time he was diagnosed with cancer it was too late. He was a kind and gentle soul who is greatly missed...but I also know he is living a better and painfree life.

Kendall,
I am so enjoying seeing Erica lately and how she just waltzed into Fusion and five minutes later had full command.
And Josh...aw...so sweet when he told Ian he was going to get better not because of all the machines but because of his family and that a love like that is the most powerful drug.
I understand how you want to be there for both of your children...but listen to Josh...take a little break...even for a few minutes...it'll do wonders.

Kendall,
Wow...Josh really impressed me...no easy feat...when he told you his loyalty would always be with you and your family. Looks like he's taking lessons in what family means from his big sister.
I know you are torn about spending time with each of your children...but Zach is right...you've already given so much to them. Ian is getting bigger and stronger and Spike too...you need to take care of yourself so you can continue to be "best mom in the world".
Greenlee will never find happiness no matter where she is as long as she continues to believe that Jack's love is a contest or a competition.

I love Josh. He is really there for you and Zach. He's going to be a great Uncle to Spike and Ian.
I have two older brothers and they are the best. I wouldn't trade them for anything. They are always there when I need them.
Family is everything. I would be lost without mine.
Josh is right, you and Zach need to go outside and take a walk, get a breath of fresh air, just be together, to reconnect. You've both been put thru the ringer and you need to clear your head or else you're both going to lose it. Listen to your brother.

My brother is awesome. He is in the navy and he is my little big brother. We would do anything for each other. No one could ever t ear us apart as kids.

Today's my brother's birthday, so this is my special gift to him: He's older than me and has been my defender and protector since I was born. He's always had my back. He taught me all about baseball and sports, and we still go to games together. We have different tastes in music and movies, but we couldn't be closer. You're very lucky to have Josh, who now finally understands what it is to be part of a family. Josh will be as loyal to you and yours as my brother is to me.

Brother's always have your back. I have two brother's. Brother's and sister's have to stick together. Always love them.

Brothers can be your best friend, I know mine is. I am so glad that you and Josh found each other, he is just what you needed to complete your family circle. I also love that he really likes and respects Zach. It can make your life so much easier when your own family is on your side, not fighting against you. With Erica and Josh accepting what you have with Zach as the most wonderful gift in your life, you have an even larger support system to help you and Zach get through any bad times that come your way. Bianca was, of course, way ahead of them. She saw a long time ago that Zach was the perfect man for you.

Now aren't you glad that Ian has a cool Brother, Spike, like your Brother, Josh? Loved Josh rockin' out Ian! I hope and pray
things will soon be better for the Slater family, as I can't imagine how much more they can throw at you!
Seriously, this is the motherlode!
