Hopscotch dedicates this week to Evan Moses Haufler. Hopscotch, family and
friends are commemorating the passing of Evan Haufler two years ago this week.
He was a precious child that brought so much joy to everyone he met. Evan
joined his family in Tbilisi, Georgia in July 2010 and then suddenly departed to
be with his heavenly Father. We hope Evan's life will motivate everyone
responsible for children in care, to expedite a child's union to their family,
in hopes of avoiding another preventable tragedy. His life is still being
celebrated, but we imagine this world as such a sweeter place, if only Evan
could have stayed a little longer.
Let this child's
legacy be a reminder to parents, our own government and our future children's
government to not wait, to do their very best to bring a child into a permanent
biological or adoptive family as expediently as possible. Evan's story reminds
us to work for and demand change, because children cannot wait.
