What codes and rituals does your family have?

and my dad would take me somewhere, as we walked along holding hands he would hook his little finger over my wrist like a backwards thumb.
This used to irritate the hell out of me, and I would furiously yank it away and refuse to carry on walking if he did it again.
I vowed then that I would never annoy my own kids as much as he annoyed me.
These days when we walk into town, and I hold my little boy's hand, I hook my little finger over his wrist like a backwards thumb.
