One more day until wedding day! I was nervous. Excited. I was going to be Mrs. Brady! I double checked everything was ready. We were getting married in Mrs. Brady's back yard.
Just as the Brady's once had long long ago. It was so romantic. I saw a dozen photos of the Brady's when they got married. There was so much chaos going on then.
They had a dog the boys did. The girls had a kitty with them. The dog chased the cat all over the place. The kids were after the pets.
Then the animals knocked the food all over the place. It was a real hoot. I was up sipping tea as I thumbed through the photo album. Greg was so adorable back then as a kid.
I hoped we had three boys and a couple girls of our own. Our own little Brady Bunch. We could hire a maid to. Maybe one of aunt Alice's friends one day. Who knew where this marriage would lead us? I feel joy surging inside of me.
♡♪♬♪♡
"Sweetheart what are you doing up so late in the night? Worried about the wedding, love?" asks Greg as he comes down stairs.
"No over excited about tomorrow" I admit. "I was looking through the wedding album. It was so funny" I giggle.
"Well Tiger was being very bad that day, then the boys were upset because dad yelled at us not the girls. Then mom yelled at the girls not the boys. So, they felt so bad about it all they came off from their honeymoon and took us all on it" laughs Greg.
Kids?! On a honeymoon?
"Kids? On a honeymoon? I do not know if I could ever do that" I laugh. "your parents are so loveable. I wish I could have known your dad" I sigh. "he seemed so special"
"He sure would have loved you" says Greg. "I wish he was here to. Because you know, he was at Pete's wedding. Marcia's wedding. Everyone but me" he mutters as he sits beside me.
The doorbell rings.
"Who could that be at this hour?" I wonder.
I wrap my bathrobe around me then head to the door. There was Mrs. Brady.
"Mom is everything alright?" asks Greg.
She nods. "Can I come in?" she asks me.
I let her in. She has a slide show for a projector.
♡♪♬♪♡
"Do you have that projector, Greg?" asks his mom.
"Yes, dad's old one?" asks Greg.
"The one and only," she answers. "dad left you a message on here in case he wasn't here for your wedding day. I almost forgot about it"
"Dad did that for me? Really?" Greg says with joy.
He goes to get the projector. Then we set it up in the living room. Mrs. Brady helps set the video up. We sit together on the couch to watch the video. Mr. Brady was standing in the back yard.
"Is this thing ready? Is it on honey?" Mr. Brady was asking Mrs. Brady.
"Yes dear go ahead" says Mrs. Brady.
"Greg hi son! If you are watching this video then that means I have passed on. And it is your wedding day! I wish I could be there for you son, but I am there in spirit. I wish I could meet your lovely bride to be. The next Mrs. Brady in our family. I know I would be proud of you. I wish more than anything I could be there. But I can't. Just never go to bed angered with one another. Always be forgiving. Willing to listen to one another. Always be there for each other. Your mom was not just my wife, my partner but she was and is my best friend" he rambles on. Greg has tears in his eyes as does Mrs. Brady.
"I am grateful to have her in my life. And you will be grateful to have your new wife in your life. And she will be to have you in hers. You will be the new Brady Bunch" he laughs. "you will have your ups and downs. But you can do anything together"
"Right dear, we always have" we hear Mrs. Brady saying in the background.
"Anyway Greg, I will give this to mom for safe keeping one day. I made one for each kid. I hope you are happy. I hope you are well. I hope you have found love. Bye son, I will miss you" he adds before he stands there and smiles. Then the tape on the wall ends.
Greg was hugging his mom. Crying his eyes out. I grab them both tissues. I hand them some.
♡♪♬♪♡
"I miss him so much" sobs Mrs. Brady.
I hug her then Greg. "I wish I could have known him. He seems like a wonderful man"
"He really was" adds Greg. "No one like my dad"
"You, have his smile" I say.
"And his eyes" adds Mrs. Brady.
"Mom thank you so much for bringing that over" Greg tells her.
"Yes, thank you Mrs. Brady" I agree.
"Why were you both up? Could not sleep? Nervous about the big day?" asks Mrs. Brady.
"I am a little nervous. But Mr. Brady helped me. I am not nervous now" I say as I smile over at Greg.
"Thanks to dad" says Greg he hugs me.
"See you kids tomorrow. I have to make sure Pete's kids went to bed. The kids are here for the wedding. It is a full house over there" laughs Mrs. Brady. "Alice is coming over in the morning to help me with breakfast"
"Want me to come help to?" I offer.
"Oh no dear no you have so much to do" she says. "we will be fine" she vows.
She heads out on her way home.
"What a wonderful wedding gift" Greg says feeling pleased. I smile. I hold him close.
"Your dad was so cleaver to make that video for you. He knew you would need him" I say.
"Dad always thought ahead. He was so smart" says Greg. "I hope if we ever have kids I will be something like he was. I hope to be one day. A great dad"
"Oh, Greg you will be a fantastic dad one day" I say.
"Are you saying what I think you are saying?" he asks me curiously.
I nod. "I have thought a lot about it. I want kids one day" I giggle.
"Oh, Daisy Mae that is fantastic" he laughs. He twirls me around in his embrace. He kisses me.
"Save something for our honeymoon Mr. Brady" I giggle.
He kisses me. "But of course" he adds.
Tomorrow was our big day. Our wedding day. I could hardly wait for it. I knew Greg was ready to marry me. No more doubts in the way now between us.
