In Honor of Andrew (AJ Molenda)
I have some good news to share
my wife gave birth to twins on April 5 (a boy, Alexander Jack and a girl - Natasha Grace)
and in honor of Andrew we named the boy Alexander Jack - so his initials would be AJ
Back when Andrew was born - I was a young child and a wicked speech problem--- so I could not pronounce Andrew -- I was very frustrated by this -- I kept trying to say Andrew but could not -- so I started calling him by his initials AJ -- that nickname stuck with him until he went to college
(as a funny side note to this story -- we were living in boston at the time -- and I was in intensive speech therapy for a few years -- by the time I was 7 all my speech problems were corrected but I had been taught by a speech therapist who had a strong back bay boston accent -- so when I was 8 and we moved to oklahoma -- they could not understand a word that I said and I got put back into speech therapy)
As soon as I told Andrew that I was going to be a father -- he was super excited that he was going to be an uncle
he was really looking forward to meeting his niece and nephew --
regretably that never happened -- but I know that he is up there looking down on us with a smile on his face when I am waking up at 4 am to change diapers --- and I know that Andrews spirit will live on in his children and in his neice and nephew
