Pretty weird conversation yesterday at work about a shower

I am an AP who has a great department! One of my teachers came up to me yesterday and said "I hope you don't mind, but your shower will be after the summer"

I didn't know how to respond to this. I felt really uncomfortable. So, I just tried to change the subject. However, I don't really know if I will be returning in the fall. These babies are due in October, but they could always come early. I hope to go back, but that is up to the dr.!

Then, I get this email today: "I just realized that it should be YOUR decision as to when yo have your baby shower, not mine! Would you prefer to be surprized before school ends or in the fall?"

Again, I feel totally uncomfortable responding. I think it is great if people want to throw me a shower, but then just do it.

Am I strange to feel this way?

I would respond with something like

"that is so thoughtful of you but anything is appreciated. This is still so surreal, I havent even been thinking about the fall yet. Who knows, by then the babies could be here since twins often come early."
