00:00My time with Bear's been really, really great.
00:01Honestly, more than anything, I want to say thank you to him and his mum
00:04for giving me a little bit of freedom to go and get well in that moment,
00:07because I had to.
00:08There's no point trying to be a dad when you've got nothing to teach.
00:10And I don't think up until this point, I really had much to say to him
00:15other than just caring for him deeply and loving him very deeply,
00:17which are obviously the most important things.
00:18But I just kind of feel like I've got more of a grip on life now
00:21and everything that was kind of getting away from me,
00:22I kind of have got more of a handle on, let's say.
00:26And he's awesome.
00:27I mean, he's growing up far too quickly.
00:29He actually texted me the other day off his iPad saying,
00:32hello, dad, right.
00:34What?
00:35You're six.
00:36Like, what are you doing?
00:37I was like, oh.
00:37I tried to make it jokey, because I thought, what am I in trouble for now?
00:40And then I put hello with no H.
00:42And the simple response I got back was, no, no, it's not hello.
00:47It's hello with a H.
00:48So he's learning really quickly.
00:49He's far more smart than I think I'll ever be.
00:52Yeah, he's a wonder.
00:54But he's definitely learning to talk at this moment in time.
00:57And it's a lot of fun to be around.
