Michael,
I know. It's been ages since I've written you. We've both just been so busy lately. Okay. Not just lately. For two years. But a lot has been going on. You've had your hands full with your blossoming architect career with Kyle (you won't mind that I've used the ever-paralleled-to-girls word to describe the macho Guerin, right? cuz I could always use 'blooming'!) and me with all that mushy emotional stuff that's too complicated to explain. Short version? Missing Alex, helping Liz settle down, being approached after 14 years by an errant father... it's all been just so much.
There's so much I want to tell you. I don't know where to start though. Can it be? Am I actually at a lack for words? ...Nah. I'll just start with something small.
How about where I live now? The coast is truly amazing. In so many ways, it reminds me of the desert. The heat sometimes is just as unbearable. Other times, you get this surreal sense of liberation and peace just being able to look at the sky or the sea. It's breathtaking. I love it here. I love who I'm with too. I'm married now.
Yes. Married. Can you believe it? It's our 6 month anniversary today. And I have some wondrous, marvelous, beautiful news for my husband to mark the occasion. I felt you should be the first to know. I'm pregnant. I woke up this morning feeling.. different. As if an aura of prenotion was surrounding me from the moment I opened my eyes. I knew something was going to change my life forever. And I knew it was for the better too. I confirmed it with a H.P.T. of course, but I can take pleasure in the knowledge I was aware from the beginning.
I'm so excited I can barely contain my desire to see you in person again.
Always yours, your loving and devoted wife,
Maria Rose Deluca Guerin.
