- Excited to learn about these fellow parents in the Ds community
I just heard about this podcast while listening to The Office Ladies (I’m about a year behind). My first episode was your wedding anniversary which struck a chord as my husband and I just celebrated our 20th this fall. We also have two kids (our oldest has Down syndrome) - so I’m looking forward to hearing more insights from you guys! Thank you!

The interview with Jake Pratt was so wonderful. My first thought when I found out my baby would have Down syndrome was, “I will never get to take my child to college! He will never be independent, he will never drive!” And that is NOT TRUE! So grateful for Jake’s example.

Stephen and Lori really put themselves out there in these wonderful, wide-ranging, and honest podcasts. As a dad of a young man with DS, it’s nice to tune in and listen to calm, thoughtful and deeply kind-hearted people covering personal subjects I don’t get around to (or avoid) thinking about. They make me think and smile, and that’s a gift. Thanks, Team Saux!
