Dork Diaries - A New Beginning Part 4

Chloe

Age 34

I'm pregnant. I just took a pregnancy test and I'm pregnant. How am I going to tell Marcus? How am I going to tell my kids? I'm so excited! I want to surprise them, but I'm going to have to think of a good way to do it.
I can't believe that I'm going to have my 5th child and I'm only 34. I mean, I've always loved kids and I've wanted to have a big family for as long as I can remember so it doesn't really come as much of a surprise. As a kid, I used to always play 'family' with all of my toys. It was one of my favorite games to play.
I'm already so thankful to have have Lillian, Matteo, Grace and Louis. And now I get to watch another little baby grow up in my house again (well, after I give birth, but there's still a few months left until that happens).

I'm so happy that I can't even think straight. Do I tell Marcus when he gets back from work today? Do I wait until our wedding anniversary next week to tell him?
I don't know if I can wait until next week. I'll admit, I'm not the best at keeping secrets for a long time, especially from Marcus. Even if I don't tell him, he can always tell if I'm hiding something from him. Like that one time two years ago when I was planning a surprise birthday party for him. I didn't tell him but he found out anyways. He didn't tell me until later that he knew about it beforehand and when I asked him how, he simply said that he could tell just by looking at me.
On another thought, maybe I'm not bad at keeping secrets, but he's just good at deciphering what people are feeling and thinking. That could be it.
After all, I've kept all of the secrets between Nikki, Zoey and I very well over the many years that we have been best friends. I haven't even told Marcus most of them, which is impressive because like I said, I can't really keep much from him.

Anyways, I think that I'll tell him after the kids go to sleep when he comes back from work. I just know that I won't be able to hide such amazing news from him for more than another few hours. Then we can think of a way to surprise our kids, our other family and friends together.
