Don't tell secrets on Facebook

Well, those of you reading this and those of you that will read this once you are allowed into my circle of trust know that my pregnancy is a surprise to Meme & Dan, Aunt Debbie & Uncle Tom, Melissa & Casey, Kara, Aunt Pam and Uncle Darren, Aunt Shirley, Aunt Patty & Uncle Herschel, Brooke & Larry, basically everyone. I am planning to announce it to everyone next weekend in Tyler at Meme's birthday party. Well that was until this afternoon. I logged on to my email this afternoon to find a message on FaceBook from Sue Harbstreet, a family friend that lives in Missouri saying she had heard I was expecting a baby in November. So, I immediately went to work trying to figure out which family member I would soon be planning to murder. Considering the only people that know that could have any contact with Sue or anyone that knows her are my Dad, Lori, Aunt Debbie, or Leslie. So, I called Aunt Debbie to ask her if she had told anyone and she said "no." She said she knew Les hadn't told anyone. I talked to my Dad and Lori... they had no idea either. I texted Leslie myself and have yet to hear back from her. Aunt Debbie said she would find out who it was and call me. So this evening the phone rang and it was her. She had tracked down the guilty party.....but much to her demise... it was herself! She is new to the FaceBook world (and should be banned, just kidding) and was unaware that posting messages on friends' walls made those messages visible to everyone else. She got on FaceBook to try to see how she could delete it and talked to Aunt Patty and Brooke who both informed her that she posted a message on one of her friend's walls and they were all able to read it. So she called me and we got on together and found a way to block that feature. So HOPEFULLY only Brooke, Aunt Patty, and Sue know but won't say anything to anyone else. It's been sooooo hard for me to wait this long to keep it a secret so just one more week and hopefully everyone else will still be surprised!
