�Good morning, mummy-to-be.�

Michelle smiled brightly at her friend. �I�m going to let that one pass because no one we know is around.�

Michelle sat down at the table Stephanie had reserved for them at the restaurant and smiled at her.

�I just can�t believe it. This is so amazing!�

�You didn�t tell Seamus did you?�

Stephanie shook her head. �Not yet I haven�t.�

�Not yet! STEPHANIE!�

�I�m kidding, I�m kidding. So� are you excited?�

Michelle looked down at her water and sighed heavily. �I�m very nervous. That�s what I am.�

�Well, when do you plan on telling your family?�

�I�m not sure. We were thinking of having another get together in a few weeks, just a dinner party thing. That�s when we want to tell everyone.�

�Some dinner party,� Stephanie said, laughing. �All six of his siblings, plus spouses, and their kids, not to mention your parents and your sisters. Great Merlin, Michelle. I don�t know how you do it.�

�I�m just lucky I guess. I like big families,� Michelle smiled at this comment.

�So how many children are you planning on having?� Stephanie asked, looking at the menu.

Michelle frowned at her friend. �I�m already pregnant with one, don�t rush me!�

�Just curious.�

�Fred says he wants four.�

�Four?�

�Yes. I told him that was fine. And then the doctor came in and told us I was pregnant. He about died.�

�I bet. I would have paid to see the look on his face.�

�No, you had your wedding. You had enough to do than worry about us.�

�I still would have liked to know.�

�You know now don�t you?�

�Yes, but when will everyone else?�
