211. Connecting, Supporting, & Balancing It All (ft. The Husbands!)
Dads, father figures, this one’s for you! Today The Lucky Few Dad’s are taking over to chat about nurturing the connections with their kiddos with Down syndrome and what this journey of fatherhood has taught them so far. Josh, Andy, and Chris share what they’d tell their younger selves and how they’ve grown as father’s so far. Some of the changes they’ve made in their careers and family dynamics that have benefited their families. How important it is to normalize asking for support from friends and family. Looking for opportunities to get involved with their kiddos, being flexible while finding what works best for their family, and so much more. They take a moment to brag about their wives and share the superpowers of our three favorite ladies! Friends, you won’t expect their answers!! Happy Father’s Day to all the father figures out there advocating and learning from your kiddos every day! We see you and celebrate you!
