Well everyone, this is my first shot at a Twilight fic. I hope you enjoy. Please review!

I sat on the plane beside my new husband, thinking that life could not get any better than this. I just married the love of my life, he's taking me on our honeymoon to who knows where, and honestly I don't really care. As long as I'm with him, I'm happy.
As I rest my head on his shoulder, I sigh. He turns to look at me, and runs his chilly finger along my cheek.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing," I say cuddling in a little closer to him. "Nothing at all."
He sits up quite abruptly, and reaches into his coat pocket.
"I almost forgot. I was asked to give this to you."
He hands me an envelope, with my name written in the most beautiful script.
'Mrs. Isabella Cullen'
I smiled at him, realizing that is the first time I have seen my new name written in full.
"I love how that looks."
"As do I, my love" he says as he kisses the top of my head.
"Who is this from?"
"I think you should open it and read for yourself."
"Ok."
I sit up in my seat and eagerly open the envelope.
'From the desk of Mrs. Esme Cullen.'
I look up at him with amazement on my face.
"Esme?"
He nodded his head, prodding me to continue reading.
"Should I read this out loud or keep it to myself?"
"It's your decision, it was written for you and I haven't seen any of the contents."
"I think I'll keep it to myself for now, if that's alright."
He smiled at me.
"You do that, and I'll have a little nap."
I smiled at him, knowing that he said that for the benefit of the other passengers around us.
I unfolded the first of what looked to be at least 20 sheets of parchment and smiled as I read.

My dearest Bella ~ the newest member of my family.
I didn't know what I could possibly get for you on this special day, other than the gift that I'm certain Edward will tell you about once you get closer.
Over the past two weeks I have tirelessly thought of what would be the most appropriate for you; something just between you and I. I think I have found it.
My dear Bella, the pages that follow are my words for you. They are my thoughts and memories from the first mention of your name to you today.
I am so overjoyed to have you in our family.
Never forget that we all love you, so very much.
~Esme
