During my parents visit this time, I learned that when I was 5 months old, my dad got an award from the president of S. Korea. He used to work for the Korean government until he retired and the award was for developing the Korean steelmaker, POSCO at that time. He hardly ever talks about himself so I had no idea until now that he had gotten an such honor. I remember we used to watch him in the evening news when I was young. I want my kids to know that their grandfather made significant contribution to the country.
My dad went back to Korea today. Even though he’s returning in a month, it still feels sad and he’ll be greatly missed. We will miss his tremendous help around the house and with the kids. My mom and I were able to sneak out for some shopping and some girl time once or twice a week, leaving Shane with my dad the days Chloe was at daycare. He’s a wonderful babysitter and a great play-date for Chloe as well. We miss you already!!
