Jealousy

I didn’t start reading blogs until I had children. Then I found several that I enjoy. I enjoy them because it’s nice to know that I’m not alone. And they’re often funny and well written. Now I’m experiencing something new – jealousy. A mother in a blog I follow just had her youngest turn two. Among many other things she mentioned that he’s talking in two to three word sentences. I want that for Ava too. More than I can say. I don’t like feeling jealous. It’s not an emotion I identify with myself. I think it’s something I’m going to have to make peace with though. It’s part of my future.
