WHAT did I tell you?!

-Veteran's Day,  Day 32-

     Today I let the girls at work know-Brianna and Rena.  Brianna asked me, "If I get you a shirt that says 'knocked up,' would you wear it?" Oh my.  Mom and I had lunch at Tele's Mexican restaurant and enjoyed some wonderful yogurt for dessert from a neat little place called It'll Do Deli.

     Cory had to work late, so since we're down to one car for right now, Mom came back and picked me up from work.  Then, we went over to Granny & Papaw's to share the news.  Those nervous jitters from last night rushed back.  Apparently, I was deep in thought trying to decide how to tell them when Papaw interrupts my thoughts by asking, "What's on your mind? You look deep in thought..." So I jump on the opportunity & tell them.  Granny sits there with a stunned look on her face so long I almost thought she had  stroked out.  Finally, she says, "WHAT did I tell you?!" The only thing that I could possibly think of was that almost everyone on my side of the family had drilled it into my head that I had better wait at least 1 year after we got married until we got pregnant. NEWSFLASH Granny-its been over a year and a half.  She kind of dropped that point right after she said it; I imagine she realized how long it had actually been.  They muttered some "Congratulations-if thats what you want" and "things like this have a way of working themselves out."  Gotta love the enthusiasm and joy you get from my side of the family.
