The Parent Lottery

The Parents Lottery

The parents lottery, yeah I won the parents lottery! I’m grateful ! Thank Allah J

I was born in the best family I’ve ever meet. My mother was a tough and calm, an entrepeneur. She run a small business in our home, business that can make me fat, cookies business! As her son, the cookies business may became my good fortune. The profit from the business  use to faring my education. For a billion reasons, my mom was my hero. She always put my needs in first colummn in her priority scale.

My dad was a tough and taciturn, but once he speak, everyone listen to him. He was a welder and entrepeneur too. He worked in my uncle workshop business beside my house and run a farming business. He is a madurish people and my mother is a chinesse people. I remembered when I had an interview once I apply a scholarship in high school, the interviewer said that my sisters and I are a “maducina” people, mixture of madurish and chinesse! LOL

My sisters and I grew up comfortably middle class in Jember. Money was an issue in our house, mostly because my parents urge to educate their children. They worked very hard everyday to earn more money till my first sister graduted from her university, after that, their workload reduce step by step. We rarely went out to dinner. My sisters and I rarely got toys, my parents bought us books rather than toys. It sounds oppresive by today’s standard, but it was actually a fortune childhood. I really thank my parents, they got so many things right to my sisters and I. We didn’t buy much, but we thought about everything.

Now, my parents must be overjoyed, their daugther already had  jobs and their son, got scholarshipin high school and university. Their second daugther married few months ago and next year their first daughter is going to marry. They are waiting for grandchild ! J

Thank Allah J
