I think it was impossible that I'd ever love somebody more. And he goes, and that instilled a day that Blake gave birth to our baby daughter.

And having two kids, I was like, that's exactly right. That is the best description. And so when I, I, I don't just read these stories. I try to put myself in their shoes. And like, I want to like cry thinking about that happening to my son.

And even then he's like, listen, you're going to mourn. It's going to change. Certain bad things are going to happen in your life, right? And many of these are, they're out of your control.

Oh, this is my favorite. This is literally what I'm doing for a living because it's also in the books. So my idea was just like, I don't think like... You don't have to be smarter than everybody else, right? And some of that's out of sight of your control. It doesn't matter what I do for the rest of my life.
