sweet release of secrets

Ahhhh, that was wonderful. So now our family knows -- it was so awesome. Everybody was shellshocked, especially my mother.

Sadly, my camera's batteries were out of juice and I didn't notice it until right before we sat down, but no matter. I'll never forget the expressions on everyone's faces for as long as I live.

I am so tired now -- totally beat. It's been a long day!
