Leimamo’s Life

I’m always afraid to spread good news because I always feel as if I jinx myself if I do

Recently, I posted about the upcoming arrival of our 5th grandchild. I had thought about posting it even before speaking to my son but then, always afraid that I might bachi myself, I refrained from spreading the good news. Once again, I’ve proven myself true. I had a phone call from my son’s girlfriend last week with a bit of sad news. She had a miscarriage a few days after they gave me the news. I then thought about removing the previous post but decided to keep it up instead.

When I spoke to my son’s girlfriend, she seemed fine and she has accepted it well. She said it probably wasn’t time anyway but she remains in good spirits. There is a positive side to this experience, if you could call it positive. That is, she was only a month pregnant. It would’ve been worse if she had been in the last trimester. That would’ve been devastating for all of us.

So, thank you to those who congratulated us.
