I remember when I was in the 5th grade living in Milpitas with my dad and as I walked to school I saw this moving company truck and this man came around the side and said Hi, I thought to my self he looks familiar so I asked him if his name was Adam , he smiled and said yes ! Crazy but from that day he was so present in our lives.
