He added, “They needed attunement. They needed a connection. They needed someone emotionally available. None of which came naturally to me."
He added, "I spent so much time thinking about what it meant to be a dad. It means putting my oxygen mask on first while not being selfish. They show me it is never about them and always about me. There is never a day that goes by that I do not thank my lucky stars for what these boys brought to my life."
He concluded, “Thank you for being my ultimate teacher. I love you to the outer reaches of the universe and back.”
