I love and miss my dad so much, but this photo makes me laugh so hard. Bro was TIRED He also tried to teach me how to play backgammon multiple times, but I kept trying to eat the pieces. Shoutout to my dad. Best dad. Very patient man. He also used to bring me out on the deck at night to say goodnight to the moon. He’d be like “Say goodnight to Luna!” and I’d be like “Goodnight Moona!” because kids are stupid. But also, this man worked at NASA. He gave up the opportunity to go to outer space because he would miss me too much. Imagine giving up that opportunity just for your child to say “Moona” smh.

Shanilou Perera

Shanilou has always loved reading and learning about the world we live in. While she enjoys fictional books and stories just as much, since childhood she was especially fascinated by encyclopaedias and strangely enough, self-help books. As a kid, she spent most of her time consuming as much knowledge as she could get her hands on and could always be found at the library. Now, she still enjoys finding out about all the amazing things that surround us in our day-to-day lives and is blessed to be able to write about them to share with the whole world as a profession.
