![On 4 October 1948, while Bhumibol was driving a Fiat Topolino on the
Geneva-Lausanne road, he collided into the rear of a braking truck 10
km outside of Lausanne. He hurt his back and incurred cuts on his face
that cost him most of the sight in one eye.[1] He subsequently wears an
ocular prosthetic. While he was hospitalised in Lausanne, Sirikit visited
him frequently. She met his mother, The Princess Mother Sangwan,
who asked her to continue her studies nearby so that the king could get
to know her better. Bhumibol selected a boarding school for her in
Lausanne, Riante Rive. A quiet engagement in Lausanne followed on
19 July 1949,[1] and the couple married on 28 April 1950, just a week
before his coronation.
The marriage took place at Srapathum Palace. Queen Sri Savarindira,
the Queen Grandmother presided over the marriage ceremony. Both
the king and Sirikit signed on line 11 of their certificate of marriage. As
she was not yet 18, her parents also signed, on line 12 directly under
her signature. She later received the Order of the Royal House of
Chakri, and became queen. After the coronation ceremony on 5 May
1950, both went back to Switzerland to continue their studies, and
returned to Bangkok in 1952.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/mothersday-130912225718-phpapp02/75/mother-s-day-2-2048.jpg?cb=1673500763)

- 5. "Mother's Day" I try to sleep as long as I can I pull the covers over my head I pray there's some way That life could skip a day to Monday I try to count my blessings It's a long, long list For a girl who has so much There's so much that I miss on days like this I wish I could go to town Buy you a card That says 'I love you' inside a heart And one that makes you laugh Pick you flowers from our yard You can set 'em in the window in a Mason jar Dad will take our photograph One two three Smile, say cheese Oh I wish it could be that way Every mother's day Maybe someday I will let go But right now I'm still hanging on Maybe one day God will bless me With a daughter of my own I'll have love I've never known She could go to town Buy me a card Says 'I love you' inside a heart One that makes me laugh She'll pick me flowers from our yard I'll set 'em in the window in a Mason jar And dad will take our photograph One two three Smile, say cheese Oh I wish it could be that way Every mother's day One two three Smile, say cheese Oh I wish we could be that Every mother's day...
