Whomever said that your wedding day is one of the most happiest days of of your life is a got damn lie. I have five new gray hairs because of this. My feet are starting to swell a bit and I am grouchy because my baby would not let me sleep much through the night.

"You look so beautiful, baby."

I looked up from the vanity to meet the teary-eyed face of my mama. No, not Sharlene, she could not would she ever be considered my mama. This woman has stood by me since the day she has met me. She took me into her arms and family with no hesitation and nurtured me in a way that no-one before her has ever done. My mama's name is Trudy O'Keefe.

"Thank you, mama. Not to be rude or anything, but why are you in here instead of out there with everyone else?", I said with a smile.

"Girl, hush. I came to check on you. I was told that someone might have a bit of cold feet", she chided taking a seat beside me.

I rolled my eyes before wincing at the smack to the thigh she had given me for the action.

"Mama?", I whined.

"Hush, I barely even flicked you", she scolded causing me to frown slightly.

"Heifer, you hit like a dude", is what I wanted to say, but I value my life.

Instead I asked her how everyone else was doing.

"They are doing just fine. Papa is complaining about there not being anything for him to snack on while we wait getting all kinds of on my nerves. You know, the usual. That is not what's important though. What is important is this cold feet issue", mama said wistfully.

I let out a chuckle dusting away the excess powder from my face. That sounds like him.

"Mama, I do not have cold feet. If anything I have hot feet from the bit of swelling", I assured.

She let out a sigh, "Oh, baby. Do you need for me to do anything? I can send your papa to the store for some Epsom salt to help with your feet. Are you hu-"

"Mama, I am fine. I am just ready to get this day over with so I can take a long relaxing bath and finally get some sleep", I told her truthfully.

She eyed me for a moment before a smirk slowly took over her beautiful features.

"And don't forget get that back blown out", she added with a giggle.

"Mama, I am disgusted right now. How could you-"

"Girl, hush. We are both grown here. I am looking at one of three versions of proof that you are far from virginal. Remember that I met you while you were still pregnant with my first grandbaby. Hell, how do you think that you got here? A damn stork?", she chided.

Again, I rolled my eyes.

And again she popped me.

"I'm telling daddy and papa on you", I whined adding highlight to my face.

Now it was her turn to roll her eyes.

"I am a grown ass woman, little girl. Can't nobody check me, sweety. Now if they want to try it I can surely teach both of them a thing or two", mama sassed causing me to laugh.
