Telling the Boss: Attempt #1

Today I was all ready to give my boss the big news. I planned it all in my head. Rehearsed the speech. Had a rough plan for maternity leave. Then, I get into work this morning, and there's a message from my manager in my inbox. His wife is sick today, and he has to stay home to care for his two young daughters. Crap! Before, I wanted to hide this pregnancy for as long as possible. Now, I've reached the end of "possible", and I've got to start telling people before it becomes so obvious that when I do get around to telling people, they go, "Duh! That's obvious." Still, there was nothing I could do about it today. I just hope that the boss is in tomorrow so that I can break the news to them.
