A bit of an embarrassing story

I had quite an embarrassing moment the other day.

We had an auto electrician here to fix our car window and I was talking to him and he was telling me about his children. He mentioned that they are all grown up now, he has a 28yr old, 27 and 21 yr old.
I asked him if they younger one was close to their older siblings and he said yes, in fact the 21yr old is closer to the 27yrs old than the 28yr old is. When he told me this I burst into tears, not just a few tears but a lot...think hysterical mad woman! lol

He, understandably was very shocked at my reaction and asked if he had upset me.
I told him that no he hadn't, in fact he had made my day.

I explained that Jakson is 5 years old and we have been trying to fall pregnant again for over three years and that we often get told things like 'you don't want to leave the age gap to big or they won't grow up close' and comments like that.
So to hear that his children had a 6 year age gap and were very close was something I really needed to hear.


It's things like that, that I want and need to hear...not words like 'just relax' or 'you're trying to hard' because those words don't help at all
