I got a reply from my mom this morning. She obviously doesn’t think my wedding is serious… Oh well I’ll just have to send her the pics.

My liewe kind,
Ek weet nie wat om te sê nie. Dink jy nie jy’s nou al bietjie te oud om sulke kinderagtighede aan te vang nie?
Hoekom kry jy nie vir jou ‘n oulike meisietjie en settle nie?
Wat dink jy sou jou pa hiervan gesê het?
Ek hoop regtig hierdie is net ‘n groot grap.
Liefde,
Mamma

To: Stefanus NelMy dear child,
I do not know what to say. Do not you think you’s now little too old for such kinderagtighede to catch?
Why not get you a nice girl and settle for?What do you think your dad would have said this?
I really hope this is just a big joke.
Love,
Mamma
