Wedding Day

Our sweet little baby girl is now three months old. Her name is Jessica Anne Collins. She is so in love with Luke and vice versa. It's just the cutest thing to watch him holding her.

I roll over in bed to see Luke holding Jessica now. She's smiling up at him. I can't help but smile at the two of them.

"Look. Mommy's awake now."

"Hi, baby girl." She smiles at me. I scoot closer and take her from Luke.

"How's my beautiful bride this morning?"

"I'm fine. How are you my handsome groom?"

"Absolutely wonderful, Mags. I love you." He kisses my cheek.

"I love you too."

Jessica starts crying and Luke takes her from me.

"Daddy to the rescue." He takes off with her towards the nursery. I laugh at him. I can't believe he's already dressed this morning.

After I use the bathroom, I head to Luke's dresser to get one of his flannels. I'm gonna wear it while I get my hair and make-up done. I'm about to grab the flannel when Luke comes up behind me.

"As much as I hate to leave you, the guys are here. I have to go."

I turn around and wrap my arms around his neck. "Okay. Where's Jessica?"

"Your mom's here. She has her."

"Okay. I love you."

"I love you too. I'll see you at the altar. Remember, I'll be the one down on my knees."

I laugh. "Alright." I give him a kiss.

"Bye, Mags."

"Bye." He gives me another kiss before leaving the room.

I get dressed and then head to the living room. I see my mom sitting on the couch with Jessica. I sit beside her and kiss her cheek.

"Hi, momma."

"Hi, sweetie. You ready for today?"

"Yeah. I can't wait."

"Neither can Luke. He went out the door floating on air. He's really something."

"He sure is. He's amazing, Momma."

"What I don't understand is why the two of you didn't get together back when you were in school. I've always known that you two would end up together."

I'm astonished. "Why didn't you say anything?"

"Would you have listened?"

"Touché."

"Alright. We need to get you there before anyone has a heart attack. You ready?"

"Yeah. Do you want me to take Jessica?"

"I got her."

"Okay."

We get Jessica in her car seat and then get her loaded in my car. My mom's going to follow behind me in her car to make sure I don't change my mind or something. Not that I would. I love Luke way too much. I'm meant to marry him. He's my forever.

When we get to Chelsea's, her and Jordan come running out. They almost trample me.

"Hey! Don't kill the bride."

"Sorry. We're just so excited. You're getting married!"

I cover my ears. "I know. But do you have to make me deaf?"
