I have friends that range in age from 25 to 55. It's not the age, or their life circumstances that I like them for. It's their personalities. I'd be willing to bet that the ladies at the day care don't care how old you are. You seem to be a kind, sweet person and that is what really matters, and what they would like about you. I wouldn't worry about it.

I know where you are coming from, because I sometimes worry what others think about me, but what I've learned in life is that people *in general* are friendlier and more accepting than I perceive them to be.
