The things my daddy says...


(Pic of my dad and his sister, Sanae, doing Karaoke in Japan)


It is my dad's B-day today! Here are just a few of the funny/cute things my dad has said to me.

This just happened today...I was talking to him on the phone for his B-day and this is how the conversation went.

A - "So what is mom fixing you for your B-day dinner?"
D - "She is fixing me Okonomiyaki. Do you remember eating that at Sanae's house?
A - "Yeah, I remember."
D - "We got the materials for it yesterday."
A - "Materials? You mean ingredients?"
Both of us started laughing

In Japan we took a rope tour up a mountain. You are suppose to be able to see monkeys, but we didn't see any. This is what my dad said to the family, but while looking at me.

D - "I have a little monkey." (says this while looking at me)
D - "And I will keep you, and I will love you, and I will feed you bananas!"

When we were little and my dad wanted us to hurry so we could leave (mostly this was so we weren't late for church) he would say, "Chop suie". I thought this was something everyone said until I said it to a friend and she had no idea what it meant.

The last one my dad actually didn't say to me, but this was in a letter he wrote me while I was serving a mission in Georgia. He ended his letter by saying "I love you from the bottom of my heart."

I love you too Dad!!!!!
