How have you surprised me most as a father
0:05
that I never expected
0:07
is that you always have a sense of humor.
0:10
Like no matter what is going on.
0:13
And that consistency,
0:17
to have that within
0:19
you is like, Yes, that's your essence.
0:21
And that has been such
0:23
a welcome surprise.
0:25
Like, remember
0:25
when I threw and I pitched a baseball
0:29
at you
0:29
and you were- you're swinging
0:31
and yeah, I hit your eye.
0:33
- Yes, I still have it. - And that’s the reason your eye is smaller
0:36
than the other one
0:37
and you're literally bleeding.
0:40
And I and my brother were crying
0:42
because I was like 12.
0:44
And
0:45
what did you say after you know,
0:49
taking a second
0:50
to just realize what was happening?
0:53
You're like, Oh, no, I damaged-
0:56
I got blood on my new Giants jersey.
0:59
Like. - I was bleeding.
1:01
You- but you made a joke.
1:02
Like that was the first thing you did
1:05
when you saw your kids crying.
1:07
Was you made us laugh and you made us,
1:10
like, realize
1:12
it wasn't that big of a deal.
1:13
And even though I had a lot of guilt over
1:15
it, like,
1:16
you're just like,
1:18
so generous with your heart.
1:21
And I think you do that through humor.
1:23
And yeah, I love that about you.
1:37
Okay. - What-
1:39
What? - What are you...
1:43
Hesitant.
1:44
Hesitant. - To.
1:47
To ask
1:49
the... - Me.
1:50
Me... you.
1:53
Me, and why?
1:55
What is hesitant for me?
1:58
And why?
1:59
Here, almost. - Okay.
2:00
Well, let's just try one more time.
2:02
You got it.
2:03
You got it.
2:03
What are you hesitant to ask you?
2:08
- Me. - Me?
2:09
What?
2:11
Hmm...
2:13
You. It’s your turn.
2:17
What am I hesitant to ask you?
2:19
And why?
2:23
Hmm.
2:38
I guess, um,
2:45
sometimes I'm hesitant to ask you
2:50
more about
2:53
visiting Mexico
2:56
and for you
2:58
to come with me when I go.
3:01
Because you've already explained
3:06
how hard it was for you
3:09
being born there and growing up there.
3:12
And
3:14
you've just said, like,
3:15
that's more of you
3:16
for- an adventure for you to do
3:19
without me. Like, I'm done.
3:21
So I know I asked you
3:25
that before. Um,
3:29
yeah.
3:31
Yeah, that was a trip.
3:33
That's over time.
3:34
It has been always a trip. Like this is it.
3:37
I was also asking like,
3:39
Well, and I was.
3:42
I was telling.
3:43
I was telling myself and telling
3:45
the family.
3:46
I said, that's what she wants.
3:48
And I said, And that's,
3:51
that's what she wants.
3:52
Yeah.
3:52
And I had a different experience
3:55
going to Mexico because I got to choose
3:59
to go and like, you know, choose
4:03
to have my own experience
4:06
there on my own terms
4:08
as like a young adult at like 18
4:11
and then again at like in my twenties.
4:14
And
4:16
I still- I'm still going to ask you,
4:18
even though I'm hesitant
4:19
to ask it,
4:20
I would love to go to Puebla with you.
4:23
I would love to see it
4:25
from your perspective.
4:26
There's no one else
4:27
I'd want to go to Puebla with,
4:29
and that's
4:29
one of the few cities in Mexico,
4:31
like at least major cities
4:33
that I haven't gone to yet.
4:34
So... - So that's a trip...
4:37
I’m like, Okay, yeah, that’s what you want. - Yeah.
4:40
Let's do it.
4:42
That’s one thing. I’ve told you. - Really?
4:44
Is like, Okay, your mom wants to go there too.
4:47
We go to the other side.
4:48
And I'll, I'll follow you on your- on your
4:53
Yeah. On your trips. - Thank you.
4:56
Okay.
4:57
Yeah. - Wow.
4:59
Let’s go.
5:00
You heard it here first.
5:01
Okay, no, it’s my turn.
5:04
Go ahead. - Nice.
5:06
In what ways do
5:07
you think I still want your approval?
5:10
And why do you think that is?
5:12
What do I think?
5:14
Is my approval. - Yes, why do I- your approval.
5:16
How do you...
5:18
Where do you think I want your approval?
5:21
On what topics?
5:24
Well, that was when you were very young.
5:27
No, right now, like right now. - Right now?
5:30
Where do you think
5:31
even though I'm an adult,
5:32
how do you think I still seek
5:34
your approval?
5:36
You do not.
5:37
I have
5:38
something to say right now,
5:39
I have something to say.
5:41
And that's.
5:43
You don't have my approval.
5:45
- I don’t have it? - You have- you have personal.
5:48
You only have...
5:50
That's what I say.
5:51
You're on your own
5:53
and I follow you on any level.
5:56
And- and that's that.
5:58
Wow.
5:59
I don't have to say. And I do not.
6:01
And I've always been this for
6:04
Oh my God, like
6:06
a lot of time,
6:08
many, many, many times
6:11
you don't have my approval.
6:15
I don't ha-
6:15
I don't need your permission?
6:17
No.
6:19
You just ask me.
6:21
But I don’t say... - Right.
6:22
Yes or no.
6:23
I'm like, what do you think?
6:25
What do you wanna do?
6:26
I just say it. I just tell you.
6:29
But I don't have to ask your approval.
6:34
Yeah, it's yours
6:36
since... - It's- right.
6:38
Okay.
6:39
Yeah.
6:40
There you go.
6:41
What does my love feel
6:47
for?

7:01
Just. That was.
7:02
It’s love. - Yeah.

It's warm and it's...
7:07
The sun is like a father figure in a way.

in astrology.
7:16
So...
7:19
That’s it. - Alright. My turn.
