Great news

Last week I got a phone call... I had been waiting for it for almost a year... It was my sister who rang me up. Her voice was really happy, but it seemed to be shaking... "You will be an aunt soon..." I could hardly believe my ears: she is pregnant!! :D

One of the most beautiful periods in a woman's life is when she is expecting a baby, if it is not the most beautiful... (I don't know, I just think so...) A new life begins. A small human being is growing in her stomach... She feels every little heartbeat and movement... Dreaming, hoping, loving... The greatest gift from the nature, and this time it is given to my sister! :D

Eleonora and her husband have been planning founding a family for years. According to them, it's high time to start it. Everybody was expecting this day with enthusiasm. The whole family already loves the unborn baby :). The young mother-to-be is enjoying these months when everybody and everything turns around her... :)

We went home this weekend, without hesitation! Big family-lunch, sparkling wine (except for Eleonora :P) and long chat... But I hope that this was only the first act of the celebration. :) a kind of introduction... :)

Clownish April

Ludicrous April has come... Our month... :P I do like it... Especially the first day of it! :) I'm trying to invent something funny every year, but this year has happened the most ridiculous thing ever: I completely forgot about this special day! :S But my friends don't...:)

On Tuesday morning I woke up, opened the door and... surprise! There was a huge barricade in front of me. It consisted of a table -stolen from the hall :)-, a clotheshorse -stolen from my room and of a roll of paper... On the paper a big smile saw to making me laugh. :D

I hope that this month will go on in such a cheerful mood!
