It's hard for me not to be jealous of the folks with siblings. I didn't love being an only child, though I understand that decision now. And, I know not all sibling experiences turn out great, like I once thought they did.

You tell a great story here, with lots of insight that makes sense to me.

I wonder how our kids will fare with only "youngest" and "oldest" as their sibling designation.

You'll catch up on Medium writing, friend. We have faith in you. And, we love you no matter what. <3
