Our little secret

I realized yesterday that DH and I are keeping the "secret" of having twins, to mostly ourselves.  When we found out we were pregnant, we couldn't wait to tell those in our inner circle the news!  I would have blabbed it out for all to hear, except that I'm trying to surprise my sister when I go to see her.  However, since we found out about the twins, our clutches have considerably closed.  Sure, we told our parents right away, and I broke the news to just one of my BFFs.  For some matters of work, DH had to share the news with some of his colleagues (he was planning to be on a trip to Cambodia for the beginning of the month of November, which is my due date month... and twins do often come early).  But other than those few people, we haven't really wanted to tell anyone. 

Part of it may be fear based, but I think there is something so deliciously nice about having a secret like this to keep.  Every time we think about the twins, a smile creeps across our faces.  I know it won't last for much longer.  I am definitely starting to show, and have to try really hard to keep covered up so people won't guess.  I'm glad that I am escaping to Australia in a week and a half.  If we can just keep the secret till then, I'll gladly come back 3 weeks later proudly bearing my bump. 

But for now, it's our little secret.  And I want to enjoy it just as it is.
