Dear Sarah:
Please forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye. Everything happened so fast.
I moved to Bluewater Village. I've heard it is a very safe place to live and I figured it could be easy to find a job with all these stores.
Finding an apartment was fast, but only because this new complex was the only place available.
The apartment is rather plain, but it's on a first floor, and has two rooms which I may not need right now, but it'll be useful when Jonas grows up.
There was also a local job offering board at the real state office, so finding a new job was surprisingly fast too.
And it was the perfect one. As playground monitor in the Village's elementary school. It's better than working as cashier in one of the local stores, and the payment is much higher than I thought it would, which I need now more than ever.
The neighbors had all been very welcoming, but you can notice it's all mostly business people who own and run the many store in the Village.
I've noticed these to be rather fancy and overpriced, though, but in general I hope to give Jonas a good life here.
Of course, one of the first things I had to do was hiring a nanny.
I don't feel at ease leaving him in a stranger's hands, but I need to work and I rather not carrying him around much while running errands, so even when I'm not at work her help is still very needed.
So far she had been very good with Jonas, though, and appears to be responsible and trustworthy, so there are no complains.
At the contrary, it's a big relief.
Especially now, after discovering I'm pregnant again.
I think I've been so preoccupied lately I didn't notice the symptoms before, but it was more than obvious by Jonas' birthday.
He's growing up so fast,
and I'm sure he'll be a marvelous brother,
but I haven't decided what to do about Lazlo yet.
He deserves to know about his child, of course, but I'm concerned about his reaction.
If he was so eager to move in together before, it worries me he may even want to marry me now or something.
I like Lazlo, but we were just starting to meet, and if I ever get married, it won't be rushing because of a pregnancy.
For now, I can only trust on your discretion about this matter, but I promise to write again soon.
Hugs
Blossom

I've been running behind with both writing and playing this challenge, so to make the best of the situation, I'll be doing this a bit more interactive when possible. Starting by asking you guys your opinion about Blossom's next big decision...
Should she tell Lazlo Curious about his (yet to be born) child?
