Five years ago my wife and I started to expect children. Three years ago we found out we would likely never be able to conceive children due to a health defect of mine. A few months after that we were blessed with the opportunity to adopt our first son. Who we named Hank. An incredibly quick turn around thanks to our amazing adoption agency. Two years ago tonight, after a three and a half month fight, Hank was taken from us by his Cancer. It's amazing, the lifetime we lived with him. It almost feels as if Hank's life unfolded within a time pocket. That pocket became our world. When he slipped away from us, we slipped out of the pocket. Back into the reality of our vast world, with wave after wave of obligation and responsibility crashing into us. Our time with Hank radically reshaped our lives. Hank showed us the fragility of life. Showed us strength we didn't know we had. Possibly the most important thing he taught us is the importance of time, and how to spend it. So tonight, I'd just like to remind everyone to hug your loved ones, and thank God for every moment you have with them. You never know when you won't have that privilege anymore. In loving memory of our son, Hank. Have a blessed evening, from our family to yours.
