Ronald and Liz are excpeting their first child on the 16th of December.
This will make me a great uncle again for the 4th time.

I'm only 37 years old.

Ah the simple joys, to be a plebian

They rejoice in labors, not of their be-in.

How'd you manage it? The youngest member of a large family?

My ex-husband's second wife was a few years older than he, and she had five children from her first marriage. Her first child was born when she was 13 (No, she wasn't from the south!) and he was only 9 years younger than her new husband. They went on to have two children themselves.

So now, my ex is 65 years old- a great grandfather since age 58. His youngest grandchildren are a pair of twins, born last year.

He is the only person I know who is the grandfather of three sets of twins. Our daughter has a pair, now 12 years old, his son and his Esso have a pair of boys, and one of his stepdaughters has a pair.

Life gets convoluted at times, don't it.

Before anyone says anything, I'm not a mother f...
or anyelse unlike some people who use this website
I'm just proud that my Nephew Ronald. wife Liz is having a baby and also that being 37 years old and being a great uncle is great as well, it's not earth shattering news that I am 37 years old and also a great uncle.
As I say I'm very proud to a great uncle once again.

P.S.
I have three sisters and two brothers, I'm the youngest of the family.
The Elddist sister Margaret is in her mid 50's, there is a 17 year age gape between me and Margaret.

So that's how I can be 37 years old and be a great uncle, because I became an uncle when I was six years old, and by the time I was 20 I had 7 nephews and neices.

I became a great-uncle for the first time on October 7, and I'm 57. Nephew Ted, however, became an uncle for the first then -- and he's 8.

He called and asked me how to be an Uncle, because he didn't know and there was nothing in the library.

Congratulations, Tom!

Great news it's a boy and he is called Lachan William James Andrews.

The William part is my Mother's name (Williamina) and the James part is my father's name (James)

Sso in other words he's named after his great gran and great granddad in Scotland.

I'm chufffed.
