Y'all are scaring me!

I think I preferred thinking I was insane.

There is no way to directly ask him, but there are ways to mention my feelings about feeling jealous when he talks about holding his nieces and nephews, or something like that. And that's perfectly legitimate. Or I can just trust that I'm nuts and it's one of those OCD thoughts that occasionally enter my head about feared events.

Still, I'm relatively sure he's not going to have a baby. His stepdaughter is nearly grown, and he's fifty and I think his wife is only ten or so years younger and very happy with her career, as best I can make out from snippets here and there. Not too old to have children but all told not too likely if they haven't had them by now. Wouldn't you think?
