Dear friends and family,
Please forgive me for not sharing in the excitement of your pregnancy.
Please forgive me for not attending your third baby shower for your third baby.
Please forgive me for not visiting you in the hospital after the birth of your fifth child.
Please forgive me for not being thrilled that you are having identical twins.
Please forgive me for not marveling at the fact that you got pregnant while on birth control.
Please forgive me for not clicking "like" when you post your ultrasound pictures on Facebook.
It's been more than 7 years since I last used my birth control.
Thank you for naming your daughter the name I had chosen for my daughter if I should be lucky enough to ever have one.
Thank you for asking when we're going to have another baby when you already know we have been trying for seven and a half years.
Thank you for asking repeatedly who is the one with the fertility problems... it's ME. You can blame ME.
Forgive me when I say, from the bottom of my heart, that I am not at all happy for you when you announce your 4th pregnancy and you can't even afford to feed the 3 children you already have.
Forgive me for not being happy about your 16-year-old daughter's pregnancy. I understand that you're excited, even though she doesn't know who the father is. Yes, it really is quite wonderful, the miracle of life. No, I'm not smiling. Forgive me for that too.
Sincerely,
MG

Baby dust to all of us!
It's hard when you can't be honest about your feelings anywhere BUT here. Nobody else understands and it drives me craaaaaaaaaaaazy sometimes!
