They say good things
happen to good people.
Today is one of those days,
and she is one of those people.

My phone rang, signaling a facetime message. Picking up my phone I looked to see who it was.

"Hey!" I answered.

"Hey, Cèline, how are you?" Kate asked.

"Nothing much. What's going on? How's Wills and the kids?" I replied.

"They're doing great. So, are you coming for Rachel's christening?" She said.

"Yes, I'll be there." I said.

"Cèline, are you okay?" Kate asked, her voice was filled with concern.

"Yeah, why do you ask?" I tried to sound nonchalant.

"Well, cause you have this far away look in your eyes. What's going on? You know you can tell me." She said.

Damn her and her uncanny observational skills. She noticed any and everything.

"Umm, well no, not everything is okay." I said.

"What is it? Is being Queen getting to you?" She asked.

"No, This isn't a over the phone kind of conversation. Plus I have to tell the whole family." I answered.

Kate furrowed her brow, concern filling her face.

"Is everything okay, Cèline?" She asked once again.

"Yes, Kate. It's fine. I just... I can't tell you like this." I answered.

"Cèline, just tell me." She said.

"Kate, I'm pregnant." I said.

"What?! Oh my Goodness! Are you serious?" She said.

"Yes." I answered.

"Who knows?" She asked.

"Well, Beatrice was there when I found out, so it's her, Demarco, Julissa, Ryanair, and now you." I answered.

"When are you planning on telling everyone?" She asked.

"Demarco and I are coming to visit soon so I'll tell everyone then." I replied.

"Congratulations, Cèline and tell Demarco, I said hi." She said.

"Thank you, Kate and okay." I said.

"I'm showing!" I exclaimed as I walked into the bedroom to show Demarco.

A goofy smile cracked his lips at my childlike excitement.

"Well you are officially sixteen weeks." Demarco said as he pulled out a camera. "Let's take a picture for the scrapbook." He said.

"Yes, I think it's time we announce the pregnancy." I said.

"I think so too especially since we have to attend Rachel's christening." He said.

"Yeah." I said.

"What about tomorrow?" He asked.

"Tomorrow is perfect." I answered.
