Inclusive, empowering big kid diapers embracing all abilities with the perfect fit.

We’re all learning together.

Between the flower artist and now this, I’m watching something shift. These five-year-olds see her wheelchair the same way they see her blonde hair - just another detail about their classmate.

No special assembly taught them this. No inclusion week. Just proximity and time.

When disabled kids are part of everyday life, they become everyday kids to their peers.

Medical parents - is it possible to grieve your child and think they’re the coolest person alive at the same time?

A friend said I “always find the silver lining.”

But I’ve been lying to myself.

Still grieving. Still think she’s amazing. Both things, every day.

Maybe it’s because of this turmoil that I decided to channel everything into making better diapers for our kids.

The two reactions when I mention my daughter’s disabilities tell me everything.

“I’m sorry” - They see tragedy. We both get stuck. They feel bad, I feel awkward, nobody knows what’s next.

“Tell me about her” - They see a kid. Now I get to brag about how she hoards flowers, demands specific songs on repeat, and side-eyes her brothers when he’s being ridiculous.

One response treats her like a diagnosis to pity. The other treats her like a person to know.

Your kids already get this. They skip straight to “what’s her favorite color?”

Maybe we should follow their lead.

Kid’s still drawing flowers for my daughter. Sometimes three flowers. Sometimes abstract orange chaos. Sometimes back to one pink flower.

Fridge is at capacity. Still don’t know who this kid is.

Pumpkin spice muffins with the whole family this weekend.

My daughter is deafblind and tube-fed. You might assume she’s in total darkness, total silence. Why include her in baking when she won’t eat it?

Because she felt cold butter turn warm in her hands. Tracked flour becoming dough. Knew exactly when we added the cinnamon.

Your kid with sensory differences might love this too:

The one who covers their ears but loves the smell of vanilla. The one who won’t touch wet things but watches every step. The one who won’t taste but still wants to help crack eggs. The one who needs routine and finds peace in measuring cups.

My daughter experiences baking differently. Not less.

Saturday morning muffins with three kids. One happens to be deafblind and tube-fed. Still made memories.

She rates my jokes with belly laughs.

Nonverbal doesn’t mean quiet. Or disconnected. Or any of the things people assume.

It means she chooses when sounds are worth making.

And apparently, my dad jokes make the cut.

Let your kids ask disabled kids questions.

The dad who helped his daughter understand my daughter’s equipment? He got it. Questions aren’t rude. Silence is.

Here’s what happens when curiosity gets answered: Questions go from “why the wheelchair?” to “what colors do you like?” to “what silly sounds make you laugh?”

Twenty minutes on a trampoline. Two kids. Having fun.

My disabled daughter needed a size 9 diaper.

Baby diapers stopped at 7. Adult diapers were huge.

Sound familiar?

We started Youth Crews to fill that gap. Sizes 9, 10, and 11. Made for disabled kids who’ve outgrown baby but aren’t ready for adult.

Your kid deserves diapers that actually fit.

Survival mode.

My daughter said “hello” at school today.

Her AAC device has been coming home untouched for weeks. Same screen we left it on at drop-off. Every single day.

Today her teacher noticed she had something to say and waited through that awkward silence. Waited long enough for her to use her head switch to say hello.

Our kids have so much to say. They just need us to listen.
