Onika and I have spent a fair amount of time on the dance floor and before I know it, she has snuck away.

So I walk right over to The Sweetheart Table, where she's obviously sitting at.

"Babygirl, what's wrong." I ask her while leaning in to talk in her ear over the loud music.

I pull my head back a little, to see her face.

"Chile, I needa break, my damn feet are killing me." Onika says to me.

"Can't keep up with me, huh babygirl." I ask her while smirking at her.

"Not in these damn heels I can't." Onika said.

"Well, take them dumb thangs off, then. Just dance barefoot." I suggest to her.

"I promise I'll come dance some more, baby. But I needa minute to breathe, and drink some damn water." Onika says to me.

"Ight, ight okay. But if you aren't out there in ten minutes or so, I'm coming right back hea to get ya pretty ass." I say to her while smirking at her.

Onika smiles at me, softly.

Onika and I then lean in at the exact same, pecking each other's lips multiple times before pulling away.

And as the current song that was playing ends, The DJ grabs the microphone.

"Can I please have everyone clear the dance floor. Cause I would like to invite The Groom and her Mother to the middle of the dance floor for a special dance." The DJ announces into the microphone to everyone.

"I'll be right back, babygirl." I say to Onika as I gently place a kiss on her cheek.

I then walk away to find my Mama in this large room.

And when I finally make my way to the table where Mama is sitting at, Mama turns to look right at me as I extending my hand to her while I then ask her to dance.

Mama gladly takes my hand while standing up.

I smile as I then lead us to the dance floor.

I quickly let go of Mama's hand as I then walk over to The DJ, I take the microphone from him, as I then turn around, looking at everyone.

"Before the song starts, I just wanna take a moment to thank my Mama for always being there for me. You've been my biggest Fan since day one and I honestly cannot thank you enough. You are the most sweetest and kind hearted woman I know.....apart from my Wife of course." I say to Mama as I look at her while I then look my Wife's way, smiling at her.

I then look right back at Mama.

"Thank you for always being there for me, Mama. I know this has always been a dream of yours, so I hope that it's everythang you imagine and so much more." I say to her.

Mama and I smile at each other.

As I then hand the microphone back to The DJ, I walk right back over to Mama.

As Boys II Men song A Song For Mama plays as I start dancing with Mama.

I knew that this was a dream of Mama's, for her to dance with me at my Wedding, with one of our all time favorite songs playing in the background.

I feel myself getting teary eyed as Mama and I spin around the dance floor, dancing together.

I'm really so truly happy that I have made my Mama's dream come true, and I'm really happy that I have made my own dream come true too.

As I look at Mama, I see that she's crying again.

I reach up and quickly wipe her tears away, while softly smiling at her.

"I love you so much, Mama." I say to her.

"I love you so much too, my Bumblebee." Mama says to me as she looks up at me.

And for some reason Mama calling me her Bumblebee in this moment, in this very special moment, has me crying, like ugly crying.

I lay my head in the crook of Mama's neck while I continue crying my eyes out.

"I know, I know the feeling baby, I know." Mama whispers to me as she gently rubs circles on my back.

And a few minutes later once I'm done crying, I pull my head outta Mama's neck while standing up straight.

Mama and I then just continue to dancing together, while singing the song together to each other.

And as the song is about to end, I look down at Mama, while I then look in the direction that she's looking in, only to see that she's looking Onika's way and she motions for Onika to come join the both of us on the dance floor.

I smile.

Once Onika is finally next to us, Mama let's go of my hand and unwraps her arm from around me while she takes Onika's hand instead.

"Onika, you're truly a wonderful person inside and out. And again I couldn't have asked for a better person, a better woman to Marry my Bumblebee, I want you to take really good care of her." Mama says to Onika.

"Of course, Tina." Onika says to Mama.

I look down at Onika, only to see that a tear escapes her eye as she looks right at Mama.

I know my Wife is so touched by the small gesture. For Mama to place her hand in mines and give me to her, and I know that what Mama said to her means the world to her.

It truly means a whole lot that Mama trusts Onika enough to take care of me and love me for the rest of her life. And that's somethang that's hard for any Mother to do.

Mama smiles and gently hugs Onika and I, before she takes her hand once again and places it in my hands.

"She's yours now." Mama says while giving Onika a genuine happy smile.

I sigh happily.

And suddenly a genuinely smile forms on my face as I look at the two most important, very important women in my life, that I love so so so so very much and very deeply beyond words, and beyond existence.
