Overheard on Father's Day
2:52 PM Monday, June 16, 2008We decided to sun our son along Manila Bay.
Just before a group started on their aerobics, the men were shouting "Araw namin ngayon, hindi kami maglalaba! Hindi kami magluluto!" ("It's our day today! We won't do the laundry! We won't cook!")
A woman then replied, "Sige, mag-alaga naman kayo ng bata!" ("Okay, take care of the children instead.")
Hope everybody duly remembered their fathers... if not for their inspiration and love, at least for the challenges they posed to us so we'd choose to lead better lives.
