It has taken me awhile to post this cause I have been trying to block it out of my head but it keeps hitting me in the face how unfair life is!
Yesterday I got a call from my sister and BIL. I was really surprised they called at all - I get maybe a call a year and that has been when my neice (she is 2 years younger than me) has had one of her kids or when my nephew was told he was going to be going off to Iraq. So sure enough I was expecting the worst being he is in Iraq right now, but I soon found out what the news was.
They hand the phone to my other nephew and he tells me his is going to be a father. "Oh um, congratulations". In my head I am thinking "no way" and "awww man" - AJ's favorite phrases lately. Then they ask if we are going to have anymore "Yep, we are trying" Don't you know it happens when you aren't trying? (Kid, you may be bigger than me but I could so slap you right now) "Yes - that's how we got AJ" hahaha. I add something about it being over a year and then my sister gets on the phone and says his girlfriend is due in September - baby should be here before my birthday - well here I am thinking yay for me - another baby for me to never see and wonder why I can't have one. There was more to the conversation but I blocked what I could out.
I so hope I am pregnant by the time that baby arrives or I am going to be one unhappy Great Aunt! How many phone calls do you think I can avoid before they stop calling with the good news when August/September rolls around?
