So I was probably 17, 18.

Around this time, I started also babysitting with his wife.

So his wife was like naming for this family who had like, it's probably like four or five kids.

And she, I mean, she was older too.

So she was like,

They were probably, they were approaching 60.

So, I mean, they were grandparent age.

So, you know, it was hard for her to keep up with two little babies.

So she was like, you just, you know, if you want to come over, like I'll pay you half of my pay and you can like help me out with the kids.

And I was like, sure.

Cause that was just like very much normal.

And me and her, everything was very normal.

We just took care of the kids.

Like we talked, chatted, like it was just kind of like,

Not like a, definitely not like a mom figure, but it was just like, I don't even know how to explain the relationship.

Because it was just so, not weird, because it wasn't weird.

We very much talked like normal, like, I don't know.

It was just like somebody you meet and just, you know.

And she was obviously a lot older than me.

A lot older than my mom, but, and she, like I said, she wasn't like a mom figure.
