happy birthday Dad!!!


The Son, eldest child:

“以一般东方社会来说,男性仍然被视作一家之主,爸爸要承担

家里粗重的工作,做重大的决定,要有担当,有责任感,有规

划。因此一个男孩要成为一个怎样的男人,首先要在自己身边

最亲密的男性长辈上,看到一个示范。” Thank you Dad, for 

always being the role model for me to look up to, over all these 

years since I was born. Happy birthday!


The Eldest Daughter, second child: 

Happy Birthday PAPA. You're my man and I will do everything 

I can for you to put on that smile on your face for the rest of 

your life. Things has changed in some way or another ever 

since Ah Ma passed away. I see for myself, the pain in your 

eyes on that very day you know Ah Ma is gone. You have been 

so selfless and fillial that I want to do the same too. Stay happy 

always PAPA! We love you!

The Youngest Daughter, youngest child:

Today's my dad's birthday, and he's the handyman at home. 

And today... is the first time I won't be around to celebrate it 

with him. Papa doesn't know it but this puppet is for him 

(basically because Asian daughters don't tell Asian dads they 

got them presents, they just PLANT it next to them), to make 

up for all the times I can't be at home to watch the telly with 

him. Even though mini-me has huge-ass hands, she can't 

press the remote for him, but she can lean on his shoulders 

like how I did when I was young. 

Happy birthday pa~pa~
