    It is GOSH! and it usually is an expression of surprise about something.  In your case it was  probably  something you said.

    Mild surprise or delight.

    Really?  Oh my?  No kidding?  Wow?  God?  For sure? 

    Gosh !!! is used in a rude way. To me it looks as if it is a sign of disgust, frustration or thinking someone is acting like a pest. You talk with your child to do something and she said Gosh Mum!! isnt that rude?

    Not rude where I live either...same as any other expression used during "active listening"...means nothing more than "I am listening".
