Today is yet another special day, Bob. You know why? Because it's your father's birthday. Your very own Bapak is turning 28!
Tsk,
I still can't believe he's about to become a Bapak anytime now--nor can
I believe me, a mother. But let me tell you, he does have the qualities
to become one hell of a good dad, Bob. At least he's shown me what a
good husband he can be during this pregnancy.
Later as you grow
up, you'll learn that not many men are willing to go to the kitchen and
wash the dishes without being asked to. Or help their wives with the
laundry. Or mop the floor every weekend and give the wife a chance to
catch a break from the weekday-routine. Or clean the bathroom just
because the wife is too afraid of funny bathroom creatures such as tiny
worm coming out of the drain.
Not many men are also willing to
help their wives cook. Especially when the wife is sometimes too
exhausted carrying the big belly, all she can do is sit down and tell
the husband what to chop and what to stir.
And what about changing the sheets? It's very tricky to do it alone, and not many men want to bother to help.
But
baby, your Bapak is all that, despite his obliviousness and totally
non-romantic exterior. When you grow up, you better start looking for
men like him because I think it'll be a little hard to find.
In
the meantime, let's give him a credit for being such a marvelous 28-year-old man and sing Happy Birthday to your father, my dearest
husband. May you find more happiness in life because you deserve it more
than anything.
PS: Semoga household helpnya berlanjut dengan nyuci popok, mandiin anak, dll, dll, dll yaaa.
