Another Reason to Love the In-laws …


For creating their first-born two score years ago.

Happy birthday, dad! This blog owes you big-time for all the fodder you unwittingly provide.

:)

noon said...

Seriously! Fodder indeed!
Happy birthday to Dad.
yes yes, same question as Sunday - PDA added to the gift? In front of the in-laws with gratitude for creating their first born and handing him over to you! :)
Great pic. Love the little car parked by his side!

Many Happy Returns to Dad. :)
Have a great day and year ahead.

Terri the terrific said...

sundar, he doesn't. But I don't let that stop me from shooting my mouth.

noon, there was some PDA (private display of affection) which was a gift in itself.

visitor, thank you on his behalf from his better half.

Terri the terrific said...

s.b., baby photos are only for milestone birthdays. Let us know when you catch up.

Dad is cute.

A Muser said...

Hope he got a big smacking PUBLIC birthday kiss from mom! OK, at least from Terri...

Terri the terrific said...

muser, mom kissing dad isn't as newsworthy as dad even winking at mom in public.

mg, thanks, although dad would be the first to agree that our kids are cuter.

don juan, thanks. What are you also known as?

rads, when's the milestone birthday at your place? I'm sure you'll plan something grand.

Sue said...

Hope he had fun. :)

Ranter said...

Hope all of you had fun at the birthday bash, and dad shared a sundae with mom, while watching the world go by !
Or was that reserved for mom's big day?

rads said...

oh, they are twins a year apart :)

I tried doing what I could and I know I had fun, for the both of us :)

rads:

"I tried doing what I could "

are you saying that the oldest twin/triplet resides at your house?
or are you talking of a different milestone? or did i misunderstand terri (could not have!)?

- s.b.

Terri the terrific said...

sue, he did, thanks. His whole family flew down to surprise him.

lakshmi, as I had mentioned, there's a higher probability of you and mom going out for ice cream, despite living on different continents.

rads, gotcha! You think he'll return the favor when it's your turn?

s.b., advance wishes for that milestone. Looks like you're also an anti-social Leo. Welcome to the club!

rads said...

terri - doubt it. Not that I want to be reminded anyway! :)

sb - lol, we need an algorithm to break all the code flyin around :D
To answer your q's

i had to look back at the questions to understand the answers. at least, you did not jumble them up and ask me to decipher!

terri:

Looks like he knew even in this picture that he would be "future fodder"..

Happy B'day

ara said...

been down with typhoid, so not online --missed mom's birthday and dad's... wish them both belated,terr --give'em a nice lick ;)

adios

Terri the terrific said...

A, typhoid? Sounds serious. Glad to know you've recovered.

vijay, that would account for the tightlips.

sm, thanks.

s.b., happy birthday, anyway.

rads, this is how I console myself - Like Hema Malini, I get better with age.

terri's mom:

"Like Hema Malini, I get better with rage."

there, with that edit, that quote looks better. all sing with me now 'कोई हसीना जब रूठ जाती है तो ... और भी हसीन हो जाती है' ;-)

terri:

thanks twice for the two wishes - nice of you to have wished me once for the birthday and once for the 'star birthday.'

- s.b. [(r)aging in peace ;-)]
