You arrive at a village, and in this calm environment, one starts to hear echo.

I'm so happy. I'm so happy for him, but also for all of his friends. They deserve it. It's a beautiful story.
We flew to Miami and then chartered a plane here to be on time. I'm really excited, I'm proud of him. I'm happy that people like him the way he is.

Your child is happy. What else could you want?
