Happy Birthday Baba !

So,I am known in my family as the one that doesn't remember anyone else's birthdays save her own. It is partially true. I didn't. Never could. But that was during my childhood and teenage years. Those were trying times. I had my identity crisis phase, closely followed by the gender crisis phase, eventually ending with teenage high school drama phase and the dreaded pimple on nose phase. There were some phase overlaps, making things just that much worse.

BUT. I remember all birthdays nowwww >.< And all my efforts are put to waste because my family keeps giving me reminders 10-15 days ahead of time, each time there's a birthday around the corner. Its actually very bad that your family has such low expectations of you And I did tell them that I remember all the birthdays now. They give me reminders nonetheless
Anyway....

Dear baba, happy birthday to you and hope you have many more happy ones in the future. For me, I will pray to God to give you a long life ( also drop your smoking habit)and to make me the son you want to be proud of. While, I'm at it, I will also pray my brother gets all the chances to succeed and make you proud like you have given me. And some more happiness for maa as well. Amen.

In the spirit of full disclosure, I really don't remember anyone else's birthday. But that's why you have Facebook !!
