Summary: A series of snapshots about turning points in the lives of the Winchesters
Author's Note: This is the second in what is becoming a series of snapshots of the Winchesters – as with the first this is written about Dean but the next one is another family member.
Thank you for taking the time to read my little fic and if you could spare the time to let me know what you think (positive criticism welcomed) I will try to improve and keep going. And so to the fic…
Turning Points – Dean
Dean supposed there had been turning points all through his life but the first one that really stuck out in his mind, the first time his life had come to the end of a road and turned onto a new one was when Sam was born.
He had stopped being Dean, the only focus of his parents' attention and had had to share that attention with a little squalling bundle. There had been moments of jealousy, moments of annoyance and frustration, but not many in the grander scheme of his life. His parents still showered him with affection and shared with him the joy of the new baby, the pride at each new achievement of Sam's; first smile, first smile, first time he recognised each of them. With each of Sam's achievements, they relived Dean's and told him what he had been like when he was small. It reassured him that he was still important to them.
The turn from only child to older brother had been a good one. One that Dean had no regrets about – he just wished it could have been an easier journey from there on for him and Sam.
The next turning point was not so easy. The next one had been Mom dying, that one Dean did wish could have been different. Given the opportunity, he would have changed that one.
