We had our ultrasound on a Wednesday at noon. Since we have
most of our family in town, in an effort to avoid a competition of "who
knew first" and to have a little fun with Samantha, we decided to keep the
gender a secret until we told family on Thursday evening. Which meant
that I wouldn't tell my students until Friday.

And to be
even more evil, I refused to tell them until 8th period. Why? Because
poor 8th period never got any surprises. By the time they walk in, they
know everything that is going to happen in class. When I announced my
first pregnancy, they all knew. When I announced the second word spread
before 2nd period even started. So this time I made sure THEY got to
spread the news.

And although I hated not telling family and friends for a whole 36
hours, I loooooved lording it over my students that I knew and they
didn't. We had fun and I got to promote the culture of life at the same
time. Win-Win!
