Alfie – I am so proud of you.

I know it’s scary standing on the precipice of such a massive challenge.

But, like the two samurai pictured above, reflect on how far you’ve come. How much you’ve learned.

You’ve even lived in another country for a whole year! All the way in Japan. The other side of the world.

You’re writing essays that to me read like ones from academic journals.

I look at this sensible, mature man and I can hardly recognise my baby brother.

I don’t know what the future holds for you, but I know you’re gonna find something amazing.

I’m so lucky to have you as a brother and I’m so proud of you.
