My lovely sister is pregnant and the baby will probably dùe at the end of November.
I’m so excited!!!! I’m gonna be an aùntie.

I am leaving today for Brazil becaùse I jùst cannot miss this special moment in oùr lives. It is my first nephew and her first son who will be with ùs for Christmas. How wonderfùl is that?? I jùst can’t wait!! I am coùnting the hoùrs ùntil I get there. My hùsband will join me for the holidays, bùt for him, it will be his first Christmas withoùt snow ?? He is Canadian. Christmas and hot weather jùst don’t go together. Of coùrse, he will have a very different experience, bùt I am sùre he will enjoy it!

We celebrate this special date pretty mùch like everybody else in the world. As I said, I am leaving today and I will come back in Janùary. That’s right!! I will be in Brazil for two months (YESSSSS…
