“My children needed someone who actively took part in their lives. A dad who nurtured them. A dad who was present in mind, body, and soul,” he continued. “They needed attunement. They needed a connection. They needed someone emotionally available. None of which came naturally to me.

"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.”
