Marc, this new project of yours makes my heart feel truly happy. What a gift for all involved, a low-stakes way to make connections, give moms a break if there's a mom back home, or dads vital companionship if they're with their kiddo(s) on their own. I seldom see this kind of open door opportunity for young parents. Your light is shining bright. In fact, it's brilliant!

Whether you see it now, later, or never, I want you to know that what you're doing is sacred work. I would have killed to have seen my husband doing this when our kids were young. Not just because of the break for me, but what it would have impressed upon him as being a part of something bigger than just an opportunity to not be alone. It's growing, dads. It's growing hearts and an opportunity to connect in ways they may feel freer to use in other parts of their lives. There's just no downside to that, for sure. Kudos, again, Marc. Sending love and prayers to each and every man and kiddo in that picture!

Donna, thank you so much. This experience has given me so much to look forward to each month. I'm reminded on how my son is the gift that keeps on giving. It feels like God heard my prayer when I said I was struggling with loneliness when I moved here - not anymore. I am not sure where this will lead, but if nothing else happens I am content with this right here.

What a joy to watch your vision grow. It brings happy tears to my eyes knowing that you are changing lives for the better, giving Dads the connection and support that you all need, and are building an incredible community for Dads to feel seen, heard, and valued. Marc, you're doing a great job. Keep it up! πŸ’œ
