We know who her favorite is

So here I was at work organizing my favorite links and lo and behold I am able to get back onto blogger again, I had been blocked at work for a little over a month.
So I am getting on my sisters blog and looking at her links and there is mine yeah, I go to get on my brothers no link to me, I click on another one thinking Heather is my sister's but it turns out it is just a cute chick that used to live down the street from me and I had a huge crush on okay I am getting off the subject, I get back onto my plan and go to get on my moms and there isn't a link a to mine but even more absurd is there is a link to my brothers blogspot only.
So we know who her favorite is, all the time she tried to lie and say she didn't have a favorite and here it is proof that he is her favorite.
If I ever said I am hungry will you make something for me to eat, my mom would have some excuse, but if my little brother Chad said I am hungry she would say I am busy and he would threaten her not to eat and then she jumped up immediately with the thought my baby could starve I better make him something. I can remember her saying things like you can make yourself a sandwich or ramen noodles or eat cereal, and he would always have the lamest excuses why she would need to do it. It would be like well I can't spread out the peanut butter as well as you do, or no one can boil the water like you mom, or you put just the right amount of milk on it mom. I tried his tactic one and said fine I just won't eat and she said well you aren't going to starve anytime soon, and even if I said something like I don't know how she would try to give me instructions, okay butter the bread put cheese in the middle let it melt and you've got grilled cheese.
When I got home from serving a nice honorable full time mission for two years, I kept in contact with a friend from the mission. When my brother went on his mission a little after I got back I didn't want the house to be too empty or to not have someone that would take my side on pressing issues. Example two parents and one kid means parents will normally side with the spouse to keep them happy so they can keep the marriage strong, two kids and two parents means equal opposition and someone around to do stuff with. So I talk Nate into coming out to Zion (AAAAWWWWW) which wasn't too hard. He lived in Maine, and anyone who has ever been out there knows there isn't much to do. I also said how many cute mormon girls are in Maine and he said well there is one that is like 15 or 16 in the branch (which was basically the whole state) so I said listen you want a girl that believes the same and the fact that you noticed a girl 6 years younger being cute is a little freaky move out to Utah, get some schooling done, and go to a singles ward that is a gauranteed 400+ single chicks that you can meet every week. And it came to pass that he moved out here shortly after. Well My mom had stopped cooking it had actually been months since I had a meal made for me that didn't come from a restaurant. Nate gets in and she starts cooking again. She makes three dinners in a row and I try to get in a request, I say hey Mom I love your cooking I really like it when you make stroganoff, she fires back I don't know if Nate likes that I better check with him. I was thinking to myself what I am being replaced he hasn't even been here a week yet. I thought a month was the timeframe to be replaced.
She even has a picture of Nate and his Wife (a lot closer to his age just 4 day difference instead of 6 years).
None the Less-At least if she is only going to have my brothers link I can still say he should be jealous of the adopted son Nate she never cancelled a family party because one of her five couldn't make it. But if Nate couldn't make it lets push it off 'til next Sunday that would work best for Nate.
