Christmas

We decided that because my parents were going to be in Savannah, LA, then South America until mid February, then Spain, that we would tell them the news.  Also, my sister would be there from Nashville and it is so hard to get everyone together all at once so it seemed a good opportunity to tell people in person.  We ended up also telling Jared’s family as I don’t think we will drive back to Grand Rapids anytime soon or see everyone altogether at once and I know they would prefer to hear it in person as well.  I’m finding it very difficult to keep the news to myself because I feel like I am always thinking about it and am lying when people ask about my plans for the future or what has been going on in our life.  So far my extended family knows and a few friends as well.  I am a little worried that I fell into the trap of telling people too early before my first appointment but I prefer to say it in person and the Christmas holiday was too perfect.  I can’t keep a secret either; not even my own…
