He got one of those National Geographic maps a long time ago and starting to learn the geography. He's obsessed with animals as most six year olds are and he honed in on Zimbabwe because on the map that we have, it had the most elephants, which is his favorite animal. And so. He keeps asking me, and he does this about every two weeks, is Mugabe still there? Is Mugabe still there? Because he wants to know when he's unleashed. Your six year old asked that question? And even the terminology, there was a period where I knew what we were about to do with Cuba and I couldn't tell anybody, even on my own staff. And so who do you tell? At that time, he was five. So I tell my five- year- old, but it gets all complicated cuz I have to say, I have to give him the history and then explain and then he's. What's so great about a five- year- old is then he interrogates it in the way one should. Like he asks, so he's like, well So, what did they do to us? What exactly did they, if you couldn't understand why cuz I said, so we stopped doing business with them and sending clothes and toys. He's like toys. [ LAUGH ] So then he wanted to know, they must've done something really, really bad and so. But I explained, you know we had this thing called the embargo and now, you know, the president is gonna come and call for lifting the embargo and we're gonna have much more contact and we'll get to know them and this and that. And then that very day, I got a call from the school nurse and he had been In a game where he was pretending to be an animal. He been kicks in the nose, and had a bloody nose and no big deal. But he grab the phone from the nurse and the kid he'd been playing with was named, Sawyer. Who kicked him. He said, mommy, Sawyer needs an embargo. [ LAUGH ] Sawyer needs an embargo. So if nothing else, I do feel the work life balance Isn't great but he will come away with, you know, and honestly geopolitics can be so easily put in kid's terms. Like, Putin, don't steal part of someone else's country and you can put that in terms of can you imagine if a kid came along and We've figure what is Crimea is in his toy set and I explained why taking it away is not a good idea. There will be some good that comes out of this stint, even if it isn't [ INAUDIBLE ] To enforce a timeout. Yeah. Timeout for Putin. Exactly. I do want to ask [ LAUGH ] [ LAUGH ] That'd be a good one. I should try that in the security council.
