Okay. I know this is selfish but I have lived my entire life in my brother's shadow. Even him finding a house to rent overshadowed my college graduation. My parents visit him 2-3 times a year but have been to visit me 2 times in 10 years.
Anyway, it turns out him and his girlfriend are pregnant and are due the same week as my wedding. He is proposing this winter. My concern is that my wedding will not at all matter to my mother now. There's a possibility that she would miss it. I very much so doubt that she will be helping at all now because she will be too focused on her first grandchild - who will also always be favored over my future child. I know it's selfish to be upset by this as it wasn't a planned pregnancy or anything. I just wanted a day to be in the spotlight - just once. I feel like that dream will now never happen.
