My co-worker Jamie just had a little girl (her first child) and my friend Elizabeth just had her third son (fourth child). Of course they’re the most adorable children (since mine, of course). Congrats to both of these strong, brave moms!
When I see new babies I have to hit the emotional pause button and remind myself that while I’m in my thirties with a fully functioning biological clock screaming (BABY!), I also have a fifteen-year-old and an eight-year-old.
Back away from the babies. Wait for the grandbabies. That’s what I tell myself.
