Had lunch with my Mum who said it was nice to be able to spend some time with me as (in her words) "the story of your life has been me running round after your brother while the one who causes less problems gets left behind". I know I'm 40 and its a bit silly but I did feel so much better that she'd acknowledged it at last!!!
I know EXACTLY how you feel about that. I am in sort of the same situation - I am the one who causes my parents less headaches and it is my sister who gets more attention. It IS nice to hear that once in a while, no matter how old we get!
