Quinceanera Page #6

the birth shouldn't be...

...as trouble-free as

a normal conception.

It may be necessary

to physically break the hymen...

...closer to the actual

delivery date.

But that should be

a painless procedure.

You understand?

It's kind of neat what the guy did...

...but put a hot tub over here and

landscaping and it'll look awesome.

What do we do with this?

This morning,

a button came off my suit.

Could you sew it on for me

before the funeral?

Are you listening to me?

What's wrong with you?

Magdalena was telling the truth.

You saw Magdalena?

Today at Tomas'.

We went to the clinic together.

The doctor examined her and it's true.

She's never been with a boy.

What?

It's a miracle.

Tomas Alvarez was a good man.

A man who embodied

the Lord's commandments.

Especially the commandment

to love thy neighbor.

We can be sure

that in this moment...

...Tomas has gone to a better place.

Amen.

Before concluding our service...

...Carlos, the nephew of Tomas,

would like to say a few words.

Tomas Alvarez was born in Jalisco,

Mexico in 1921.

The 13th kid out of 22.

When he was born,

he was so small...

...the midwife said

he wasn't worth washing.

He ended up outliving all of them.

In his life, he was an office boy...

...a barber, and a farm worker.

Then in America,

he sold champurrado.

Everybody knew him.

If you walk down the street...

...he would stop every

two minutes to talk to someone.

They were always happy to see him.

He had a love inside him

that was so strong.

It came from his heart and out through

his eyes like a golden light.

Everybody could see it...

...because he loved everyone

and judged no one.

At the end of my life, I will count it

as my greatest privilege...

...that I knew a saint.

Because Tomas Alvarez

was a saint.

And he will not leave us.

His spirit is still strong.

He'll be with us

till the end of our days.

Your mother tells me

this is some kind of a miracle.

There's a scientific explanation.

The Lord works in mysterious ways.

This wasn't his doing.

Everything is his doing.

Will you forgive me?

I'll make it up to you.

I promise.
