us about Tracy.

schizophrenic sun. She makes time for me every Saturday to
watch my kids just so I can provide a roof
and everything, like support them, just me and the boys.
And then on top of that, sick, I call her

(00:48):
and she takes off work to watch my kids, and
she really takes like good care of us. So I'm
really appreciative. I wish I could give her like the most,
you know, but like I can't, Like I'm barely making
it myself, you know. But I appreciate her a lot,
and she deserves, you know, just to feel special.
