Long Distance Birthdays Are Hard

Today is my father's birthday, I hate so much that I can't be with him to celebrate but we're just too far away.
Nonetheless, I will likely call him later, or reach out on socials at least.
If we WERE able to celebrate together, I'd gladly take him out (on my dime) to enjoy a nice meal together. If I know him, he'd probably want some Catfish, or Asian food.
I do hope he has a great birthday.

Yes @AmbiePam and @arunima25 that's true. I'm thinking I'll do one better and video conference with him, so he can actually see us (especially Eli.)

@jnrdutton That would be so nice! And I am sure that he would be all excited to see Eli. That's how they feel about grandchildren. Isn't it so?

He would be happy to get your call on his special day. And parents always love to talk to their children. A heartfelt talk would be the best gift for any parent.
