..and who might this be?
from the moment i was pregnant, he knew he wanted his kids to call him bapak, because that's what he called his. and so it is.

* * *

animal farms, balloon lagoons, waffle world of ice-creams and cakes.
from the moment they crawl, to the agonizing times of chasing a runway kid in the middle of a mall.

a ball of a time or a whale of a swim.
you are there for their fun and fears.

pouring unconditional love.
the boys drive you crazy - but you are undoubtly nuts about them.

kissing the boo-boos away, and hug-a-lot at play.
you're their punchbag as well as their security blanket.

your feet hurts, your muscles throbing, your back ache.
yet nothing is better than having them in your arms.
* * *
for all that,
and for days of changing smelly poopy diapers,
for fixing milk in the middle of the night,
for all the ball, swim, xbox & dvd time with your boys.
for days of tickles, laughters and tears.
for that i thank you for being my best partner in crime!
HAPPY FATHERS DAY, honey.
i love you always!
* * *

last but not least, happy fathers day to my father-in-law, haji anwar who's currently waiting in anticipation, waiting for his grandsons to balik kampung - most of all, of course - the return of his first born, along.
* * *
for all abah, bapak, ayah, papa, babah, appa, dada, daddy - HAPPY FATHERS DAY! (oh, and remember that you're great coz you have us mommies! *snicker*)
