Kendrick and I attended the wedding of Arcadio and Karen yesterday. Arcadio's speech, which started in Danish and ended in Spanish, was very emotional. Toward the end of the speech he was looking at his parents, and despite the fact that I do not understand Spanish, I imagined what he was saying to them and I couldn't stop the tears from running down my face. I thought I was safe from scrutiny since I was sitting in the back - until Kendrick announced to rest of the table that I was crying again. Jordi then explained to me that Arcadio was actually telling the audience that he never had a grandfather, and that he was thanking his two widowed grandmothers for teaching him how to be a good person. That managed to start me off again.
