[00:46.69]Hello there, Robbie. [00:48.85]What are you doing up this late? [00:51.08]Reading. [00:52.24]Reading? [00:53.21]At this hour? [00:54.17]Ah, come on, Robbie. [00:55.13]What are you doing up this late? [00:57.40]Things on my mind. [01:01.01]Do you care to talk about them? [01:04.70]Sure, [01:05.06]if you don't mind listening. [01:07.53]Robbie, Robbie, remember me? [01:10.31]I'm your mother. [01:12.15]If you have something you want to talk about, [01:14.42]I'm always prepared to listen. [01:17.54]You haven't been around much lately. [01:21.46]So that's it. [01:23.96]OK, let's talk. [01:25.73]You and Dad are like ships that pass in the night. [01:29.19]Dad works hard, and he works late. [01:31.96]You work hard on all your committees, [01:33.76]and you work late. [01:35.30]I thought you were proud of the work I do. [01:37.64]I am, Mom. [01:38.78]Real proud. [01:40.78]You are one fantastic mom, [01:42.63]but ... but I've been noticing [01:47.19]how little quality time [01:48.85]you spend with Dad and me ... and the family. [01:57.50]It's a real problem, Robbie. [01:59.84]I know it. [02:04.46]I'm concerned. [02:06.69]There must be a way [02:07.65]that Dad and you can spend more time together. [02:12.69]Well, we always talk about [02:13.73]taking a vacation together--with the family. [02:18.19]I think you ought to [02:19.15]take a vacation away from the family--alone. [02:22.62]Kind of a second honeymoon. [02:25.73]It would be wonderful, [02:26.73]but our schedules won't allow it. [02:29.77]I think I have an idea. [02:32.73]You do? [02:33.46]Yup. [02:34.43]I think I have an idea [02:36.01]that will bring Dad and you [02:37.25]together in a more scheduled way. [02:40.78]What is it? [02:42.44]Well, [02:42.78]you know how Dad is always talking about [02:44.36]the kids in the ward [02:45.86]and how important it is for them to be paid attention to? [02:48.75]Yes. [02:50.02]Well ... [02:50.32]and how hard it is [02:51.13]because the doctors and nurses are so busy? [02:53.75]Yes. [02:56.17]Well, how would it be if you took some time [02:58.52]to work with Dad towards solving that problem? [03:02.52]I don't get it. [03:03.79]Like setting up a regular weekly reading program. [03:07.98]You and Dad. [03:09.29]You and Dr. Philip Stewart-- [03:11.21]going to the children's ward once or twice a week [03:14.06]and reading to them. [03:17.06]Not bad. [03:18.72]Not a bad idea, Robbie. [03:20.41]As a matter of fact, [03:21.87]it fits right in with something I'm working on right now [03:24.42]with the school-board committee. [03:25.95]What's that? [03:27.77]I've been trying [03:28.31]to work out a program [03:30.12]in the public school [03:31.75]that will bring parents and teachers together once a week [03:35.82]to read to the students--their own children, really. [03:39.28]By doing that, it will encourage reading. [03:41.98]So it might fit in with a program [03:44.01]for reading to the kids in the hospital. [03:46.94]You're right. [03:48.24]We'll do it! [03:49.44]I'm going to talk to Daddy about it right now. [03:51.82]But Dad was so exhausted when he came home from work. [03:55.17]Why don't you talk to him about it tomorrow? [03:58.17]You are a very smart young man, Robbie. [04:01.70]I think I'll wait until tomorrow. [04:04.41]You won't forget, will you? [04:06.14]Believe me, I won't. [04:08.06]It is a great idea, [04:09.87]and I promise you I won't forget. [04:12.49]Thanks, Mom. [04:13.91]Thank you, Robbie.
