One more post about Mum's birthday day.
This lady on the left ...
... had something to tell her audience.
Oh yes, she had some wonderful news to share on that evening.
It went something like this:
"We put an offer on a house today."
Cue lots of oohs and ahhs, and 'Oh, Catherine, that's great news!'
She went on:
"There are three bedrooms. So, that's our room, the guest room, and ...
come August, the third will be used as a ...
nursery."
Bit by bit, the news sank in ...
deeper and deeper ...
until it had finally sunk in.
And the joy could no longer be contained!
That was until someone explained that if Catherine was having a baby, then my baby sister was going to be a ...
Great Aunt!
Great Aunt sounds WAY older than Granny!
Imagine, my baby sister finally may have to grow up!
Happy, Happy News! Congratulations to you all!
