Happy 72nd Birthday to my Opa, Jaime Alanis Cruzata. The man who taught me how to make siopao, the man who always bought me ducklings, the man who always brought pasalubong everyday, the man who would make me pancit canton no matter how late it is, the man who bought me dolls that were much better than Barbies, the man who taught me folk songs, the man who helped me with my homeworks, the man who was always present on my birthday, the man who sang me to sleep, the man who would help me get ready for school, the man who would watch cartoons with me, and sooooo much more. Opa, I wish you were still here. But I know that you are in a much more better place. Ich liebe dich und Ich vermisse dich sehr.. Happy Birthday once again. :)
