Patience with your parents goes a long way. We dont know how long we'll have them.
Bless your heart!! My FIL is exactly the same way and it seems lots of time goes by between our conversations/contact with him because of that and my husband ends up feeling so guilty. But it is hard fitting in a 2 hour (sometimes longer) conversation on a daily/regular basis. So good for you!!! I am sure you made his day!
