Confession: Sometimes I Envy Other Families' Togetherness

Confession time: I often find myself feeling a pang of jealousy when I see families who seem so close-knit and joyful. It’s not that I don’t love my own family, but sometimes I wonder what it would be like to have those effortless Sunday dinners or spontaneous game nights I see others enjoying. There are days when our schedules clash, conversations feel rushed, and I long for more connection. It’s hard not to compare, but I’m learning to appreciate the unique ways my family shows love—even if it looks different from what I see online. Has anyone else ever felt this way?
