Time moves so swiftly

minutes, hours, days, months

then suddenly years 

night falls for us

sun rises for them

Ben's family

two sides of the same world

two parts of the same boy

we often talk about the little Manh's 

Vietnam mama and papa

often wishing wishes out loud for them

especially now

as we begin celebrating 

the beginning 

of his special little life

funny little manh

energetic whirlwind

imagination machine

kind and thoughtful soul

beautiful boy
