This is my 100th post and supposedly a special number, a milestone. I cannot say if what I am writing below is special enough, but the person whom I write it for is.

I am thankful that he has always been

Dependable;
Epitome of wit;
Very very patient;
Artistically creative;
Narrator of ingenious stories (most of them written just for my sake);
Adjusting and accepting, even if our principles don’t match;
Tamizh Teacher (my first outside school!);
setting High standards for me to reach;
A perfect edagudam;
Notoriously optimistic;

He is all this to me and much more!

You are the best dad in the whole world, Daddy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, DADDY!!!
