I remember the day me and her son David was married. We were both so nervous when it came to the vowels he shook his head yes instead of saying I do and I placed his ring on the wrong hand and afterwards she tapped me on the shoulder and quietly whispered he's got his ring on the wrong hand, right finger, wrong hand, and that is a memory that will never lose
