Chapter 8
Anne and Gilbert decided to wait to tell anyone. They
wanted to enjoy being parents-to-be by themselves for a little while. They also
didn't want to be around all the commotion when everyone found out. So Anne was
going to write a letter when they got back to the Glen. They knew everyone
would be disappointed when Anne and Gilbert didn't tell them while they were in
Avonlea but still didn't care.
The weeks seemed to fly by and
Anne got bigger and bigger. Before they knew it Anne was eight months pregnant.
Anne's mom was going to come in for the birth but Anne's dad, being a doctor as
well, wasn't able to go. Everything was going fine. Anne was healthy and so was
the baby. Or at least from what they could tell.
