Our family is about to change forever, and that’s kind of unsettling

This is the stuff that always happens to other people, and when it finally happens in your own family it feels SO! WEIRD! Like, our sister (or brother) is engaged? Getting married? Huh? You can’t contain your excitement, and no one else gets it, ’cuz, like hi, people get engaged every day, what’s the big deal? But when it’s your own sibling… yup, it’s a really big deal!

Our family is about to change forever, and that’s kind of unsettling. Yes, it’s exciting, yes, we’re thrilled, but the reality is that someone new is joining the family, and the dynamics will never ever be the same again. Along with that comes a pit in the stomach, no matter how much we like the new sibling-in-law. It doesn’t mean we’re not majorly excited — we are! But sometimes change is hard, even if it’s not in a bad way.

Will our new sister-in-law/brother-in-law like us? Will s/he pull our sibling away and only hang out with the other side? Time will tell, and as exciting as this is, we’re kind of nervous about that too…
