It Never Ends

Yesterday Matt had a mini crisis for work. As we were talking on the phone, Matt realized that he had another business trip coming up next Wednesday that required him to apply for a visa. He had to email the filled application and two scanned passport-size pictures to the secretary so she can apply for the visa here in Singapore. It was Thursday midnight in the States (Friday noon here) and all these needed to be done before the end of the day since nothing could be processed over the weekend. As we were thinking how on earth he's going to get his passport pictures taken in the middle of the night, Matt resolved that he'll just have to do it himself with a little help from his dad, "I'm going to wake Freddy up to help me take the pictures, talk to you later."

A little while after we got off the phone, I sent Matt this text message:

"Hey honey - Now you can't get mad at Luke waking you up at night. You still wake your Dad up at night to solve your larger than life problems and you are almost 40. :) Hugs for you and Freddy - greatest dads in the world!"

You see, once a parent, always a parent - doesn't matter your kid is 4 or 40.
