Best man speech Quote by Anonymous

“There have been times in many a bar that I was not so much a brother, but more of a mother to him: Ive watched him drink from a bottle, Ive watched him stagger around naked, Ive watched him crawl, Ive dressed and undressed him, Ive even cleaned up after him, and several times helped him to walk.” quote by Anonymous
