There's no need to feel sorry, unless a woman really wants children and can't have them for some reason. I feel the same joy when Aidan asks me for help, or shares exciting news with me. He will finally start kindergarten in a few weeks, and I'll be there with my sister, mom and other families members to see him off on his first day of school. Certain to shed a tear. :))
