00:00 I'm asking you, what are your gimmicks?
00:03 Aliza?
00:04 Daddy, as I grow older, I see how happy and difficult life is.
00:10 I see how you handle the trials of life.
00:14 You're always calm.
00:16 You always have a way.
00:18 And that's what I love about you.
00:21 You're really a strong person, a fighter, but always with humility.
00:25 I adore you as a teacher and as a father.
00:27 Thank you for being patient and loving.
00:30 Even though I always say that you're impatient with small things.
00:34 Because it's so irritating.
00:36 "What's that? You're so slow."
00:38 Like that.
00:40 With small things.
00:41 But when it comes to me, you're so patient.
00:45 I love you, Daddy.
00:46 I will make you proud.
00:48 Aliza.
00:49 I love you too.
00:50 I'm crying. My voice is so hot.
00:55 Five.
00:57 You see, I don't have anything.
00:59 Nothing in these hands.
01:01 But what I have, I give you.
01:03 So here are my hands.
01:04 You see, in these hands are spaces open for your fingers to rest on,
01:08 closed for your hand to hide in.
01:11 You see, with these hands, I knock on your bedroom door
01:14 so I can greet you good morning and kiss you good night.
01:17 But usually I knock on your bedroom door to say,
01:20 "Papa, can I have money?"
01:22 I have to go to--I guess it doesn't really matter.
01:27 Because before I even finish my sentence, you give me what I need.
01:31 In reply, I stretch out my hands to hold you, to hug you,
01:37 so you can hear me say, "I love you."
01:39 You know, you see, I don't have anything.
01:43 Nothing in these hands.
01:45 But what I have, I give you.
01:47 A story with just two hands.
01:49 You see, you are L-O-V-E-D by S-O-F-I-A.
01:55 But before I love you, I hope you remember J-E-S-U-S-L-O-V-E-D.
02:03 Jesus loved you.
02:05 Stretching out his two hands, he said, "I love you, and I approve of you."
02:10 So you see, I don't have anything because he gave us everything.
02:15 So there.
02:17 [applause]
02:20 [laughter]
02:22 She's crying.
02:24 I thought I was the only one crying.
02:26 She's a teary-eyed.
02:28 But no, the real thing is,
02:31 I'm really--it's priceless to have a child.
02:35 Why are you crying?
02:37 I don't know, it's just--
02:39 We're crying all the time.
02:41 That's the real thing.
02:42 Why?
02:43 You're crying too.
02:44 No, I'm not crying because I'm being teary-eyed.
02:50 Do you miss your dad too?
02:52 Yes.
02:53 No, I'm crying for you.
02:57 You miss your dad, right?
03:00 We're just crying.
03:02 Oh.
03:03 You're crying too.
03:07 It's just Father's Day.
03:11 I'm so mad.
03:13 Why are you crying?
03:15 No, of course, because life is different when you're different.
03:22 You made him cry.
03:24 No, it's different when you're different.
03:26 Although, Father and I, we text each other every now and then.
03:30 But of course, I know that I have a lot of things I want to express,
03:33 but I can't express it to him.
03:35 Because it's hard for me to speak Spanish.
03:37 I don't have practice.
03:39 So, when I had a child, I felt that he was too much of a "tack" to Zia.
03:49 He's a very proud grandfather.
03:51 Zia is his first grandchild.
03:53 So, he didn't do anything but take care of my child.
03:57 But of course, I miss him.
03:58 It's too much because he should be home, but he's not.
04:00 So, of course, I miss my dad so much.
04:03 Fathers are different, mothers are different.
04:06 That's why I said that it's priceless to have a child.
04:10 And I always say that since I had a child,
04:13 there's no reason for a child to answer the mother and father for the sacrifices they make.
04:19 So, right?
04:21 Good luck.
