Espérer et le subjonctif

It thought that that espérer was followed by the future tense when stated affirmatively, and was followed by the subjunctive tense when espérer when stated as a question or in the negative. Yet, in the writing practice, the following is presented as the correct way to use espérer:

Espérons que cela se rafraichisse dans les jours qui viennent.

Why when that is an affirmative statement? Why isn't this correct?: "Espérons que cela se rafraichira"

Past perfect: sequential eventsHi, I have a question about he following sentence in the lesson: "Après qu'elle lui avait avoué ce qu'elle ressentait, elle avait rougi." Seems logical to me that she would have blushed AFTER she confessed her feelings, hence "elle a rougi" makes more sense, no? Would appreciate your thoughts, thanks in advance!

Je suis UN oncle?

Bonjour! I have definitely heard an excited new dad exclaim, “Je suis Papa!”

Is there a difference between what is correct and what is actually said?
