Watch how this birthday boy makes his baby brother emotional

We love this Brazilian tradition around birthdays.

Birthdays are always more special when you are younger, with the celebrations and attention all on you. 

Many families tend to have special traditions that they are accustomed to practising when it's someone's birthday.

We came across a video that shared this Brazilian tradition and what's more is that usually it is the mother and father of the person celebrating who receives the first slice of cake. 

But in this video, we saw an older brother gift the first slice to his younger brother. 

The younger brother, aware of the significance surrounding the first piece of cake, was overcome with emotion and began crying.

@gloss In Brazil, it is tradition to share your first slice of birthday cake with the one you love the most. Wait for the reaction… 😊❤️🍰 Usually the piece is given to the mother or father. But in this family older brother Ryan chooses to give the first piece to his younger brother Antonio. Antonio is so stunned that he bursts into tears! #fyp #foryou #family #cake #brazil #birthday #love ♬ original sound - GLOSS
