A Love-ly Story

For the sake of those who dont know.... (which of course, is everyone)
Mer is my daughter Marriah, she has been Mer...forever
Dominic is her fiance
Lahna is my sweet granddaughter

A young girl, named Mer, many found to be the absolute, utmost
 Shall we say...Determined? Stubborn? Willful?  All of them I suppose.
Learned a baby was coming~ when still young and herself yet a child
 Slight in stature- yet stronger than most- a force behind an angel's smile
Less than five months a baby to come- undeterred, whether ready or not
 To all's surprise and my pleasure, she stepped up without a second thought
That precious baby would know more love and happiness from Mom alone
 Though us girls were there to help should it prove to be too much on her own
On the edges of all was a yung man- that ultimately anothers debt he paid
 Unknowing that a baby would come, not his, yet quiet greatness he displayed
The girls mom told him to run- Baby nor responsibility were his she said...
 With not so much as a pause, "I'm staying... the baby will call me Daddy instead
Children still the both, he 18, she 16 for only a month babies really themselves
 Though doubts flew all around- happiness, strength, and love they showed all else
He never missed the OB, made the first photo shoot too...even though he had to bring Aubrey
 Together they'll shape the two chapters of them into a novel love story
The baby decided to come out and play...Ushered giddily by all into the world
 Gorgeous melding of pretty Mom and (somehow) cute Dad... A stunning lil girl
Halloween day she raised HELL and flaunted all her perfectness and absolute beauty
 The day before her Daddy's birthday. He thanked her Mom for the best present... this little cutie
Content little family they are- completely ready to do battle in the war we call life
 There is little doubt coming soon, he'll make her his pretty, smart, loving wife
Then she'll no longer be one of the Great Garrett Girls.. But of the Cadermatori Clan
 Her: Mommy. He: Daddy. Her: lovely, strong, competent woman. He: cute, sweet, loving man


Whether she sought a playmate, a weekend date, a better half, or a partner in crime
 There he wandered in... all she searched for
       Just in the very........... Dominic of Time
 May you each learn twice over- from each in turn
       1,000,000 2/3.............Mer Happiness
 Than you can stand in all your lives combined
       May you know a whole...Lahna Love
