Having decided that she was going to keep the baby growing inside her, Ginny knew she needed to tell her kids about their upcoming sibling before the tabloids figured out what was going on and announced the news first. A casual lunch in the home she'd raised her children in had seemed the perfect idea first, though the closer they got to it, the more she worried that it would be seen as disrespectful. She probably should have invited them to her flat, instead. By the time she'd come to that realization, though, it was too late to change the venue on them, and so she decided she would just get through it.
It wasn't until they were sitting at the dining room table, eating their lunch, that Ginny finally found the courage to get the words out. She set her sandwich down, took a sip of her drink, and then looked at each of her children in turn. "I'm sure you're all quite curious as to why I asked you here together. I have some news I wanted to make sure you heard from me first, because it's only so long before it's all over the gossip pages."
Ginny took a deep breath then. "It turns out I was not as careful as I ought to have been. I'm pregnant. Blaise and I have talked extensively about it and have decided to keep the baby." Simple and direct she rather thought would work best with her kids, though she would be surprised if there weren't any volatile emotions now.
