My character has got reason to be yelled at at the moment!

And Laura was very sweet.

“And you were like, ‘yo do.

I think I need a distraction!'”

“I’ve been up all night.

I can’t sleep.

I’ve lost my home and everything that I own,” he shared.

“It’s important to focus on the things that we have and can be grateful for.

You’re just stuck thinking and reeling.”

It was the physical representation of the deep love we have for our children.”
