As most sibling relationships, the closeness of our friendships is constantly changing. Yet, considering we all went through high school and its growing pains, phases of rebellion, and taking into account that Pete and I are six years apart, I'd say we're pretty close.
Today I saw him as the man I knew he could grow up to be. It was real as he spoke in church, in front of practically his entire extended family, and all of his mentors and friends, and he testified that the gospel if Jesus Christ had changed his life. It was real as he cried telling of how he prayed to God to know if the Book of Mormon was true. It was real when he spoke about the Atonement of Jesus Christ and testified of how we can change and be better. It is real, the fervent, earnest, honest, beautiful faith he shows committing the next two years of his life to God and serving the people of Colombia. I know that he will do good there and that God knows that my little brother Peter Gallagher is exactly the 19 year old that someone in Colombia needs to meet. So excited for him!
