“Like That Also Can Ah?!!”

About A Girl

Published by simon on July 22, 2008

Let’s go back a few years.

I became a dad at quite a young age, younger than most of my friends and peers. I pretty much learnt about the job on my own, my own dad was never around for most of my growing up years and when he was around in my teen years, i had already grown distant from my family.

But young as i was, i think was pretty prepared, i had always known what kind of dad i would be, even before i had gotten married.

Digressing. First kid came some years back, she was a mature looking baby, but very sweet, everyone said she will grow up pretty (so she doesn’t look like me lah ahaha). In her mannerism, she’s a lot like me, she’s a lot like her mother, although my wife may not agree. The second kid, now that’s a different story…

***

But anyways. It’s her birthday today. Happy Birthday, kid.

  1. Boone Said,

    I remember that on the day she was born (or was it the day after), she already had long fingers (that part of Daddy she inherited ;-)), a prelude to beautiful lady-like hands.

    Happy Birthday, A!

  2. Pat Said,

    Hey, happy birthday to your eldest!

    I would have to say she reminds me more of you than your wife, hahaha…

    Yeah, she grew up pretty quickly, since her mom and dad were very active in church and took her everywhere :)

  3. daniel Said,

    I too would like to share my birthday wishes. As our neighbor would say, “Kiasu”. Anyway, Happy birthday Alyssa.

  4. pelf Said,

    Happy Birthday, “kid” :D

    May all your birthday wishes come true (and make sure you pick whether you want to be like your Dad or Mum when you grow up) :D

  5. Ann Said,

    Already extended bday wishes in wife’s site. So, shall not repeat the same here.

    But I agree that that girl will be one tall pretty lady. And one main thing I can say about her is that she is indeed good natured - that comes from who?? :)

  6. Ponytail Said,

    Happy Birthday Alyssa!

    pressie is on the way…on the way….i better call uncle Mike to confirm again…tsk tsk tsk…

    This auntie is pretty slacking since the arrival of her own girl…terrible huh!…pilih kasih…cis!
    But auntie Poh Nee (or is it che che Poh Nee?…tak malu) never forget those hugs from you since you were just a little toddler. Your rare but lovely curls and that sweet sweet smile…melts!

    Oh and this photo is really a killer - I mean can kill a dozen boys on the road…hahaha
    Such a lovely girly pose and the mesmering smile :)

  7. Ponytail Said,

    and this is for Simon - the Daddy…
    After not seeing you for a while and they saw u last SG, my parents still think you look like that HK actor laa…(they told me after u all left) maybe just a few kilo extra laa. But like my Dad said, you are tall and a little extra is Nothing! Hahahaha…

    Btw, Alyssa picks the best feature from both mar…hahaha!

  8. giddy tigress Said,

  9. simon Said,
