Mr. Slinger has big news.
He's getting married.
Married!
Lilly has big plans.
She's going to be the flower girl.
(Lilly has always wanted to be a flower girl.
Even more than a surgeon or a diva or a hairdresser.)
But what's the biggest,
the best,
the most perfect thing of all?
You're invited to the wedding -- so start reading!
