28 Regretfully, jealousy takes hold
Posted on: December 1, 2009
We were out at my mom’s celebrating her birthday. It was November. We had officially been parents for 2 months. Vincent and Jo and their 3 kids were out there also. That is when Jo and Vincent told us the news…they were expecting child number 4. WHAT????????? I know I now had 4 kids of my own but it just wasn’t fair that she was pregnant again! I wanted to be pregnant! And it was that time that my mouth opened and out came the words – I hope you get a Michael. (At this point Michael was known as a very very hyper child.) I still apologize to Jo for saying that to her. I wasn’t trying to be malicious. I was just jealous. The worst part of it was that I was sitting there wondering if I too was pregnant. I was late and even though I had four I was still hoping.
