Exciting News

When I got to Georgia, I went to see my brother D and his new wife, and I found out some exciting news. They are going to have a baby!! She is already seven weeks along now, and I even got to see the ultrasound pictures and the heartbeat of the baby. I am going to be an Aunt!

It won’t be my first time as an Aunt because my sister already has a three year old, but it’s still very exciting. I never in a million years thought that my little brother, who is five years younger than me, would have a child before me. Come to think of it, I never dreamed my lesbian sister, even though she’s five years older, would have one either. Everyone always used to tease me that I would be the first one to have children and start a family. Somehow things didn’t quite work out like that.

Now, instead, I am the divorced one with no children. Honestly, though, thank GOD I don’t have any children. For one, if I had kids already, it would have to have been with my ex-husband, and he’s a lunatic. I am so lucky that we did not start a family. I am also happy that I have this time with G where there are no kids yet. We can just be ourselves and play and be silly together without the responsibility of a child. I definitely would like to start a family with him someday, but it’s just not the right time for me yet.

I am excited about all of the babies who will be entering my life soon though!! I am good at being an Aunt :).
