Epilogue
“Four down, two to go,” Big Mac said to Linda as the clock headed for midnight and the party raged on around them. Jackets and heels had come off, ties were strewn over backs of chairs, and the champagne continued to flow.
The bride and groom were right in the middle of it all, dancing with their siblings and friends and having a generally fantastic time from what he could see. Tonight there had been no sign of the troubling diagnosis that had thrown them for a loop. Tonight had been all about celebration.
“It was a beautiful wedding,” Linda said.
“They’re a beautiful couple.”
“Look at them all. They’re incredible. Every single one of them—the ones we gave birth to and the ones we’ve picked up along the way.”
“They certainly are.” He took advantage of the opportunity to kiss her. “I can’t wait to see what the next forty years brings.”
“Neither can I.”
With his arms around her, Big Mac drew her into his embrace, looking forward to everything still to come with his own bride.
