I am older than my sister because I have a child older than her?

AS it happens she is 7yrs older than me and our eldest children are 2yrs apart

When i started clubbing with my Dsis we often had people guessing who was older. It was often assumed i was.

She's 12 years older than me!

No i havent had a hard life, hers must have been very easy Grin

you have a child older than her?

TheLadyEvenstar · 09/10/2010 21:15

DF yes my DS1 is 12 and Dsis DS1 is 10.

I was 23 when I had DS1 at the time Dsis had had 6 miscarriages and been told she would never have a baby.

When she was 32 she had her DS1 and then 4yrs later had her DS2.

My DS2 is 4yrs younger than her DS2.

You have a child older than your sister and wonder why people think you must be older Shock Wink

TheLadyEvenstar · 09/10/2010 21:25

Sorry I am taking the piss - your OP suggests that your own child is older than your sister . Just being silly Smile

You look younger, have people actually said that you must be older, or are you assuming that from hints and implications?

TheLadyEvenstar · 09/10/2010 21:42

Goblin I have been told by a few people they thought I was older because my DS1 is older than hers.

Nancy I figured that after I posted lol...late night/early morning/kids party all combined makes me knackered!
