An Extra-Ordinary Dad

Child, Health, Parenting, Videos

A friend sent me this email and I cried….

A son says to his father: “Dad, would you be willingly to run a marathon with me?”
The father, despite his age and a heart disease, said “YES”.
And so they ran that marathon, together.

The son asks: “Dad, can you run another marathon with me?”
Again father said “YES”.
So they ran another marathon, together.

One day the son asks his father: “Dad would please do the Iron Man with me?”
Now just in case you wouldn’t know, The Iron Man is the toughest triathlon
in existence;
4km swimming, then 180 km by bike, and finally another 42 km running, in
one stroke.

Again father said “YES”


You have to see how extra-ordinary this father and son were in the video clip below:

A Rare Sight

Child

In Sunny Singapore City, we hardly see animals ‘on the road’. But we were in luck yesterday… We saw the ‘animal of the year’ ~ Cows on 2 big trucks.

“Papa drive faster… go beside the cows…”

“I can’t, there is a car infront of me.”

“Papa don’t drive so fast, we have past the cows….”

“I can’t, the cars behind, will ‘horn’ me.”

(for those of you who are interested to know about your luck in 2009, the year of the cow/ox, you can pop over to my personal blog to read up over 12 days…. started 2 days ago)
