Ruthie looked down at her baby boy; she felt blessed to have him healthy and in her life. She couldn't remember when she wasn't praying in the hospital but it had paid off. She was able to bring Dylan home at the end of the week and now she was enjoying their time together.

Martin was so cute when he was with Dylan; he kept telling Ruthie what he was gonna do when Dylan was older. They looked so cute, Dylan smiled every time Martin called his name and whenever he held him he was calm. But it was hard raising a child and going to school. She attended classes and did her homework which wasn't easy because she had to take care of Dylan and do house work. She now understood why her mother was so frazzled every night when they were little. She appreciated everything her mother did for her.

She only had two more weeks of classes and then they were flying home to spend the summer there. Both Martin and Ruthie were so wrapped up in Dylan they had forgotten about their wedding because Lucy and her mother were planning the whole thing. It was god send for Ruthie that was one less thing she had to worry about.

Martin came home and saw both Ruthie and Dylan asleep. He smiled at them; he couldn't ask for more. He picked Dylan up and took him to his crib, Dylan's little eyes fluttered open and he starred at Martin. He had Ruthie's eyes so dark and full of excitement. Martin thought that Dylan was the cutest kid ever and that no baby compared to him.

Martin kissed Dylan's forehead as he fell back asleep and went back out into the living room where Ruthie was still fast asleep on the couch. He sat down next to her and lifted her head into his lap; he played with her hair as he watched the news.

Ruthie woke up and looked up at Martin.

"When did you get home?"

"About an hour ago."

"Where's Dylan?"

"He's in his crib asleep."

"Thank you for letting me sleep." She sat up and stretched.

"You needed it. How was your day?"

"It was good, Dylan and I had fun grocery shopping."

"That's good."

"How was your day?"

"It was long. I'm glad classes are over in 2 weeks."

"Me too, my mom called today."

"Oh is something wrong?"

"No she wanted to know what colors we wanted for our wedding."

"Wow, I can't believe that slipped my mind."

"Well we've been busy with Dylan. I mean she laughed when I realized."

"I would have too. I mean who forgets their wedding?"

"Well in our defense we aren't planning it so it was so easy. I can't wait until we're married."

"I would be surprised if you could. I mean its been almost 3 years since we started dating plus if you count the two years when we were flirting and realizing our feelings then we've been waiting for this for 5ish years."

"She told me that she's been waiting for us to get married after the first year you moved in."

"If only we weren't so blind." He lifted her chin and kissed her when Dylan started wailing in the next room. Ruthie started to get up but Martin stopped her, "I'll get him." He walked into the nursery and picked up Dylan.

"Hey buddy what's wrong? Let's go see mommy." Martin gently rocked Dylan as they went into the living room. "Come on buddy its okay I'm here." He kissed Dylan's forehead.

Ruthie looked at the sight in front of her; it was so cute. She reached for the camera that she had bought the day they brought Dylan home. She snapped picture after picture as Martin found a way to calm Dylan down. Soon Dylan was lying cutely in Martin's arms.

"You two look so cute."

"Well he is your son."

"You're so sweet Martin."

"I know." She playfully slapped his arm as she went to start dinner. "Hey what are you doing?"

"Making dinner."

"Oh no we're ordering in."

"It's not a big deal."

"No we're ordering in." He picked up the phone and ordered their food, he didn't want her doing everything. She deserved a day off just like everybody else.

When their food came they shared a quiet evening watching TV and playing with Dylan. After they had tucked him into bed Ruthie fell back on their bed. She was tired but wanted to spend some times with Martin before she completely passed out. He saw her fighting to stay awake so he just got into bed and pulled her close.

"Go to sleep." He kissed the top of her head as she closed her eyes and Martin watched her sleep. "Next thing to accomplish: getting married." He couldn't wait to finally got Ruthie his wife.
