keeping secrets!

i am the worlds worst at keeping secrets! my kids know that i can't keep my mouth shut, especially when they tell me not to tell anyone! they are right most of the time, but not this time! misty and i go out to dinner every couple of weeks to have alone time with each other. the 2nd week in february we had made plans for thursday nite. she called and said that jeremy was going to join us. (he never joins us!) they came by to pick me up, but they both jumped out of the car. misty had to go use the bathroom before we left and jeremy followed her up the stairs (what was this about). when she came back in the living room, she asked it i was going to sit down, (started wondering  now). then they told me they were pregnant!!!! my baby is having a baby! and "oh mom, you can't tell anyone"......i saw trouble right away! me, keep a secret? could i do it? only renay, pam, cathy and steve knew, no one else. i needed to wait a week before they told sasha and bobbie, but i had to wait 5 weeks to talk about it to my family. it was the hardest secret i have ever kept (it may be the only secret i have ever kept!). i talk to my mom at least 3 or 4 times a week and she would ask how misty and jeremy were doing and i just said they were doing great and quickly changed the subject. finally, everyone knows, and i am able to breathe!
in case you didn't catch it, both of my kids are expecting this year. sasha, a boy in july, and misty in september. i will have 2 new babies to love on! they will join caroline in my little world of joy  (i may need a new recliner to hold all 3 of them)! i remember the unspoken prayer i prayed 7 years ago when i found out i had cancer...lord, please let me hold my first grandchild. he has answered that prayer and so much more. today i raise my hands with praise and thank you! so much love, so much joy! i am really liking this season of my life!!! thank you lord, for everything! (i am still not a fan of secrets!)
