Father is the BOSS at home... Many people say that. But in our case, rephrase it! For my dad, WE ARE HIS BOSSES! Find out why! *winks*
"Papa", that's what I call him. I don't utter this word as much as I do with "mama". I don't share many personal matter with him, especially girly ones. Perhaps because of gender difference, it makes me shy. Hence, I prefer to open up to my mom. But nevertheless, I know that his arms are open for me and he is ready to listen anytime. Sometimes, he gives me advices out of the blue and my jaw would just drop. Startled to know that he knows what is inside my mind and heart. And I appreciate it so much. As a father, he knows when is the time his child needs him. My father and I always talk to each other, especially during family bonding, but we never talk about deeper and privy things. For instance, my love life. He never said a word about it, yet I know his action nudges me and indicates something, like "Hey! Don't be sad. We're here for you".
My father is a knight in shining armor, I may say. He does everything for his family. Don't try to mess up with us, or my dad will break your head! =D I kid you not! He works hard to earn a living and gives us all we need, luxuries are included. Lolz! =D He makes the life of Riley for us. After his long day at the office, he still manages to help my mom do the household chores. He can wash and iron the clothes, can cook, can wash the dishes, everything! Most especially when my mom doesn't feel well. A responsible house husband, indeed!
What makes me truly proud of him is his religiousness. He is a religious Muslim. He never fails to pray 5 times a day and perform the 5 pillars. Some people conclude he is not because his wife and 3 daughters have different way of living; we don't wear the proper clothing, we do not pray 5 times a day, and the like. My mom was brought up in a Christian society for her parents are Catholic and my father respects that with all his heart. He did not force us to be part of the tradition. He always says that as long as our heart is pure and believes in God, God is with us. We are not like any other people who follow the tradition, but commit mistakes/crimes every time. However, he has some rules for us and keeps on reminding us; always pray and it must be from our hearts, help other people, never do crime, and have faith in God. :)

I always tell myself that I want to marry someone like my father. Not to have a father-figure hubby, but to spend my life with a guy whom I know will be a great better half and a responsible father to our future kids. Because that is what my father is... A great husband to my mom and a responsible father to his children and grandchildren as well.
Now you know who are the real bosses in our house. My father treats us as his bosses, simply because he puts us first in everything he does. =)
-------------------------
Papa, even though I might not say... I appreciate all the things you do. Richly blessed is how we feel having a father just like you. Happy Father's Day, Papa! Thank you for being the greatest father in this world. Happy father's day and we love you so much. =)
