Valentine’s Day has become a commercialised event where you’re supposed to show extra love and appreciation to your significant other. Some do it by giving flowers and chocolates, while some by treating their partners to romantic dinners.
However, for our beloved number 1 national badminton athlete, Lee Chong Wei, uploading a heartfelt yet witty appreciation post for his wife, Wong Mew Choo on Instagram is the way to go!
He had posted a set of pictures for his Valentine’s appreciation post; a couple of where he and Mew Choo played badminton together, a picture where Mew Choo just gave birth, and the last one is a family picture of them with their two sons, Kingston and Terrance. He included a long romantic caption underneath the post. He stated how Mew Choo is a superwoman and he is no more than a mere “flower vase” during her first pregnancy with Kingston.
He mentioned that he realised how much his wife loves him when he saw her sacrifice during the labour, and wittily said “I must be very handsome for her to love me this much.” He also stated that Mew Choo is very strong for carrying their son in her womb for 9 months long, while he went “jelly” right away when he was passed the scissors to cut the umbilical cord.
He romantically wrote, “Without her, there won’t be me and my two boys,” appreciating everything that she has done for the household. In the end, he thanked her for completing his life, and wishes for them to always be happy and healthy together while watching their two sons grow up.
Being the humourous person he is, he added a side note as well in his caption, where his son asked him why are there no school holidays for Valentine’s Day when there’s one for Eid, Deepavali, and Lunar New Year as well. (Maybe humours can be inherited.)
If we’re tearing up, Mew Choo probably bawled her eyes out. Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone out there!
