I'm going to need some backup...

Jellibean and I flew to Bowie, Maryland to be in a wedding this weekend.
Can I just say that getting my brother to fly with me to watch Baby Poni was the greatest idea I have had this year so far! I would not have been able to do a single thing that Maid of Honor's are supposed to if he had not come. As it was I didn't get a wink of sleep the whole trip!
But, the wedding was beautiful and Jellibean was the picture of a perfect flower girl! She had her hair and even make-up done. As she came down the aisle she dropped the flowers a petal at a time glancing behind her every so often to make sure she had them all evenly spaced! And then she even checked to make sure the other side of the aisle, covered by the second flower, had enough petals!
As for me, the makeup artist spent 15 minutes just covering up the dark circles under my eyes! I had the bride half into her wedding gown when I was called away to nurse Poni and as we stood in line ready to process down the aisle I realized I had forgotten the groom's ring! Sugar Honey Iced Tea!
I had to run in my floor length gown and 4 inch heels to the opposite end of the church to retrieve what would have been a most embarrassing and disastrous mistake!
At least I remembered! And at least Jellibean was an angel!
