The phone rings...."You have been summoned home to attend your grandfather's 85th birthday...even if it's for a day...buy an airline ticket and make your way back"
my dad says over the other side of the line...
Yes...I answered and solemnly I bought a ticket and boarded a flight...
The birthday was a quiet affair...the old man likes to think of us as proper grown ups...even as 3 year olds we were whipped to behave...
That's what my grandad's birthday will be like if a certain crazed uncle had his way...
luckily this is my other grandfather and he didn't so this granddad birthday was actually fun and a welcomed affair...
The two KL chung flew back the night before...the babies prepared their lively squeals...the uncles and aunties did their cooking...while dad bought some pizza...
Then it was good old family fun with lotsa noise...laugther and generally a good time regathering everyone...Here's hoping this for your family too...
