Sunflower for her dad

Since our passports were almost near the due date, we went to renew them. With the new passports, we don't need to apply for visas to visit Japan.

So yesterday, my girl renewed her passport and on her way down from the UTC, she passed by the florist's stall. She simply bought a stalk of sunflower for only RM3.

I asked her why she bought the sunflower. She said she wanted to give to her dad. Oh, that's nice! So she was supposed to give to her dad on the same day when he came back for his bath. But she chicken out and she didn't give him.

Today I still encouraged her to give him but she told me that she was scared. In the evening, I called her to give his dad as he was on his way back home. She still hesitated. I told her that it would be fine as his mood was good then.

Later she came to fetch me back from work and I asked her if she had done it. She said yes. But she didn't say anything like, "Thank you dad for your love and full support."

She just said, "This is for you."
Her father replied, "No need la.."


Sunflower is just perfect for guys!

      he has his mood and so we need to find the right time..
      he's the kind of person who doesn't like this kind of appreciation but we want to make a difference.

    That's very thoughtful of your girl. But why she is scared to give flower to her dad ? Is her dad very strict type ? Some men are like that but still, I'm sure her dad is touched by her little gesture.

    Wenn, your 'No need la..' cracked me up. That is so typical of guys, that's why they are from Mars. haha..

    But your girl is so sweet to even have thought of giving her dad a flower. Speaking of sunflower, on my last trip to Camerons in Dec, we stopped by a place with huge sunflowers and I mean HUGE. The flowers were as big as a man's face, maybe bigger too. And it was a lovely sight.

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
