Lottie looks up at me, rubbing her thumb across my forearm she says, “Even forever wouldn’t be long enough.”

Lottie-

Dear Baby Rexwood,

I can't believe tomorrow is your Daddy and my wedding day. It feels like I've waited my whole life for this. As a little girl, I used to dream of what my perfect wedding day would be like. Now, all I care about is the man that will be waiting for me at the end of the aisle. Your handsome, loving, and protective dad.

This past month has been a very busy one for us. I graduated from Mountain Ridge University and start my clinical research assistant internship at the end of June. I'm so excited to start this journey, and to hopefully help so many others one day.

Our wedding, which we’re having at our house in Nori Beach, is this weekend. All mommy's and daddy's closest friends and family will be there. No one knows about you yet. So, for now, you're still my little secret. Oh man... I can't wait to tell everyone. Auntie Ashley and Auntie Frankie are going to freak out when I tell them. Don’t even get me started on your Pops. I think we may have to limit his visitation. He’ll try to hog up all of your time. I know Nana will certainly spoil you rotten any opportunity she’ll get.

Not sure how I should tell your Daddy. He's been praying for you for months now, so I want to make your announcement special. I'm so damn proud of him. You will be too. He’s been working so hard these past few years to get the shop to where he wanted it to be, and his dedication has certainly paid off. So much so that a top motorcycle magazine did a feature on Rebel Customs a few months ago.

I'm thinking I'm going to surprise him after the ceremony but before the party. That way, we will have so much more to celebrate walking through those doors together.

I can't wait to hold you in my arms and shower you with love. You’re our precious gift and I know my angels above are smiling down on us.

I’ll love you always…
