about nine months old when all of a sudden there wasn't a father there so I had that responsibility of being mother and father I'm sure you've experienced single thing yeah and this kid slept in carnivals and you know all kinds of Road shows they've had to do and his little bassinet or the strollers you know on my way to the wall worried well when he was a baby I have three well I have two older boys who are adopted and then Zuri is my my well when he was a baby I never had to bring him on the road because my husband stayed at home with him which was really cute but when I came right baby he wore me out no but it's it's an absolute fact that there is a certain amount of giving things that we do in order to get this done that's never recognised you know okay like with Shanga my nine year old was a little bit different than my older two this 14 years between us when my other two were small my career wasn't where it is now and we were really struggling trying to make it I mean you know make the paying the bills you know and that kind of stuff and I'm gonna say this but if in the romantic area I think a lot of guys could have taken some lessons from the children it seems like they adults in this situation the male adult was more undoing you know like [Music] back in circulation now time for celebration tend to have a party a party at first I was afraid I was petrified [Music] kept thinking I smell so many nights thinking how you didn't stop [Music] I learned how to get it [Music] and so you're back from outer space I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face I should have changed that stupid lock I should have made you leave the key I don't know but just one second you'd be back to bother me go now go walk out the door don't turn
