The Fourteenth
This is a copy of the email we sent out this afternoon to the entire staff of the school at which we both work:
Dear Colleagues and Friends,
Three months ago today, just before the end of last school year, two really good friends sat down together at their favorite sushi restaurant in Kreuzberg and, after a glass or two of Chardonnay, finally got up enough nerve to say how they really felt about each other.
Yesterday, (this time, without any Chardonnay) they called their families to tell them that they’d decided to get married.
It’s like you always hear people say…when you know, you just know.
And…we know.
Have a lovely Friday afternoon and weekend…
J & J
P.S. – In case you were wondering, no baby is on the way…
Not yet. :)
And now, you know too...

Dear Jessica & Jordi!
Congrats from Amsterdam!
I'm happy for you Jessica, after all those frogs...=)
Thrilled silly for you.
(As one who also just knew) Wishing you much happiness!

What a great way to announce it! Plus I love the injection of baby humor...
Wonderful news!
Congratulations, Jessica! I am so happy that you have found love.
I have recently gone back to the beginning of your blog to reread some postings...some for humor, others just because. I notice lately the happy "tone" of your postings...I knew something wonderful was happening to you!
All the best to you both!
Fondly, Tracy
Congrats Jessica!! I am so happy for you both.

Congrats for both of you! Lots of happiness for your future together!
Yea!!! Congratuations, friend! Now you'll have lots to think about planning the coolest wedding ever. :) I'm truly happy for you.
Hooray, Jess! I am very much looking forward to meeting Jordi. This is one of those times when I wish there weren't so many miles between us... friends should be together to celebrate life moments like these. But since we're not, I'll have three glasses of wine (one for each of us, of course) and shout, "salud!" Love you and I am so happy for you! xo
QUE MAGNIFIQUE!
Weddings! I love weddings! Drinks all around!

After reading your blogs, I see what that confident young woman with the long curly brown hair and her backpack full of ideas about sharing her love of art and Chris Van Allsburg has become. You gladden my heart with the news of your engagement. I wish you both much happiness and love.
Live joyfully,
Pat N.
P.S. I figured out that you are living "Under the Tuscan Sun" in Germany.
OMG! I am so happy for you! Congratulations!! I want to hear more details. E-mail me when you get a chance.
PS - I do have another baby on the way in March! Yikes :)
Congrats! When that baby does come, at least it'll have entertaining stories to hear about!
