It is said that a man doesn’t truly understand the value of women until he has a daughter of his own. Strong bonds grow and it becomes harder and harder to let her go. And then it happens: Wedding day.
The day you “give up” your daughter to another man, hopefully one you approve of. You have your shotgun ready, just in case.
Most fathers like to give a little speech during the wedding, but the father of Nicole Cortez decided to do something a little more special.
He learned how to sign “I Loved Her First” by Heartland, which meant a great deal to Nicole because she’s a sign language interpreter. Even her new husband was touched by the display.
“He said it took him the entire year I was engaged to learn how to sign this song” she said.
Giving away your daughter is never easy, but when it happens, you can always take a lesson from this loving father and do it in style.
