Happy Birthday to Granny Dearest

Popo and the Malacca crew were down in JB last weekend to celebrate Popo's birthday! Yay!

My Popo used to live in JB with the Lak family. When the Lak brothers and I were young, she took care of us when our parents were at work. Popo and I used to share a room, where we would watch Chinese drama serials together and go to sleep with the FM 93.3 DJ whispering in the background. My Popo is one great lady. She is extremely kind-hearted and showered lots of love on her grandchildren. I should also boast about Popo's outstanding culinary skills. Her pork dishes were no doubt the best! :)

Many years back, after the youngest of us was old enough to take care of himself, Popo moved back to Malacca to be with her other children and friends. Since then, visits to Malacca have been short and sparse, usually for CNY only. So when Popo comes down to JB to visit, we will without fail rush home to welcome her.

Family photos, of course, were in order.
