This is going to sound slightly odd and weird, but I have two: 1) Proposing to my missus, on a boardwalk down south WA overlooking a placid lake, all romantic and shit (and then ruining it microseconds later by openly discussing about her micropenis clitoris that we'd need another engagement ring for, seeing the look in her teary eyes was priceless and I still get shit about it today) Who says there are no true romantics anymore???  |

Oh bulldust, I read it, no way an easy out, just fact there is nobody more in the world than my son that proud of! If you only knew what he had to deal with in life and what he is achieving now, you would be very proud like me. |

Proudest achievement?
Life in general, got a very loving wife, 2 cute kids, a house to call my own, a well paying job that is very taxing at times but rewarding, too. I have great holidays that don't cost the earth. Plus I'm a massive tightwad with wasting money that gives me a better lifestyle overall. Got a few cheap hobbies & interests that I have some me time with.

If you only knew what he had to deal with in life and what he is achieving now, you would be very proud like me. Not doubting you're proud of him. People are proud of their kids - that's a given, irrespective of what they've been through... ... which is why I asked for something other than that. You can smite me again for pointing it out  |

You can smite me again for pointing it out Clearly know what you say, but u don't understand, for me there is nothing else in this world that makes me prouder than my son, Not after sympathy, but he beat cancer when he was a kid, which affected his schooling quite severely. He battled on and now older where he is working his manager called him into his office and praised him for his good work and they are going pay for a course which lead him to a management position in his job. So excuse me for ignoring your guidelines without any offence HBM. Just makes me proud! |

mine is of a similar theme too. having my mum say she is proud of the man i have grown into is a big deal. telling me that my dad would be proud of me is even bigger. we lost him 10 years ago to cancer and i got to talk to him the night before he died.
i was also always crap at saving, money for anything, so for me to save, plan and go to WM27 last year plus spend a week in Washington and NY, for me, was amazing
