Doug Kramer at Kendra Kramer
NAKAKA-TOUCH at nakaka-inspire ang open letter ng dating professional basketball player na si Doug Kramer para sa panganay niyang anak na si Kendra Kramer.
Tulad ng kanyang wifey na si Cheska Garcia, feeling sentimental din si Doug sa pagiging teenager ng kanilang anak (13 na si Kendra) at mukhang hindi pa rin siya handa sa pagdadalaga nito.
After ng unang school banquet ni Kendra, nag-post si Doug ng kanyang message sa Instagram at Facebook kalakip ang mga litrato ng anak, kabilang na ang mga throwback pictures nito noong batambata pa.
In fairness, mala-prinsesa talaga ang datingan ni Kendra nang um-attend ito sa kanilang school banquet. Talagang kinarir ng kanyang glam team ang paghahanda para sa kanyang dadaluhang event.
“Kendra may not have arrived in a pumpkin carriage, but she still felt like Cinderella at the middle school ball,” ang simulang bahagi ng caption na inilagay ng dating PBA player sa kanyang socmed post.
Pagpapatuloy ni Doug sa kanyang open letter kay Kendra, “Have courage and be kind.
“Kendra, you’re truly a princess inside and out. Ever since you were a little girl, you always loved wearing those cute princess dresses.
“And yesterday, I was so happy to see you in the favorite color I always said you looked extra beautiful,” aniya pa.
“More than your beauty, your heart stands out even more. And that is why Papa loves you so much. Those that know you well, know that the most,” mensahe pa ni Doug.
Marami ang nagkomento sa post ng cager at halos lahat ay na-touch sa kanyang mensahe para sa anak. Narito ang ilan sa mga reaksyon ng netizens.
