Addam
Five years ago this week a beautiful little friend of mine went to be with Jesus. I don't know how to describe him to people who never knew him because there were things about Addam that were so great that it seems made up when you try to talk about it later.
He carried a spark in him that was as contagious as his laugh, and his sense of humor was far beyond his seven short years. He had a great smile, a bright mind and a quick wit. He was always generous and always eager to be your friend.
I can't help but think of Addam when I think of Jesus saying, "unless you become like a child you cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven". For almost ten years Addam and his family have been an integral part of my life. Much has changed in our lives in the last five years, but one thing has not changed; Addam is still painfully missed.

It is hard to comment on losing someone, I find people try to avoid it, I have lost many close people in my life, and therefore do not suffer the uncomfortable silences of sickness and suffering. Speak out, I am sure in twenty years time, you will think of Addam, and remember great things, and even then you may miss him, and its ok.
Wow, has it been 5 years already? Pass on my greetings to his Mom. Miss you guys!
