DADDY AND Little R were caught on film by an anonymous reporter for a local Hong Kong newspaper (without our noticing it), while we were cruising on the streets of the famous Chinese New Year’s market in Causeway Bay on the day before the Chinese New Year’s Eve. What caught the reporter’s eyes were probably the enormous Lightning McQueen helium balloon that Little R was pulling along in the air, that he was 7 feet tall up on Daddy’s shoulders, and that he had a bubbling smile on his face.
And that he probably was the proudest kid on the aisle that day.
Anyways, on the Chinese New Year’s Day, we felt really surprised to be informed by our relatives who saw the picture published in the newspaper (dated New Year’s Eve). All of these relatives live in Los Angeles, California. So, they read their papers one day later than the ones in Hong Kong
We asked, Does the Hong Kong edition have it too? Finally, we found that newspaper at my aunt’s home when we visited her on New Year’ Day. Daddy deliberately checked that newspaper, dated January 22, lying on my aunt’s couch. Eureka! He found it!
Daddy’s first reaction to the picture was: Hey, we can use this picture [in the portfolio] for Little R’s application to primary school!
What a daddy! What a funny first reaction to this picture of himself and his son appearing on newspaper!
