On this World Down Syndrome Day, we draw inspirati

On this World Down Syndrome Day, we draw inspiration from our very own Maria Kelley, founder of The North County Moms, and her husband, Danny, as they reflect on raising their son Constantine, 14, who was born with Trisomy 21.

“Constantine is caring, loving, passionate and has an entertaining personality,” his parents say. “It seems like that extra chromosome is a gift. This is why we call him 'King Constantine!'”

Head to the link in bio for the 7 lessons they’ve learned about raising Constantine, including how amazingly capable he is, and the cultural shift that allows for embracing and celebrating children with Down Syndrome.

Thank you @thenorthcountymoms for sharing your journey!

March 21 is World Down Syndrome Day.

The date 3/21 is symbolic because people with Down Syndrome have 3 copies of their 21st chromosome.

Socks were chosen to mark this day because the extra chromosome actually looks like a mismatched sock!

Today we celebrate the families who love and support someone with Down Syndrome and invite you to rock brightly colored, mismatched socks.

This week’s Meet a Dad interview is with @peters

This week’s Meet a Dad interview is with @petershankman, an accomplished entrepreneur, keynote speaker, bestselling author of six books, and the Futurist-in-Residence at BluShark Digital, a Marketing and SEO firm in Washington, DC. 🙌

He’s also a NYC-based single dad of a 9-year-old daughter, Jessa. 💗 A licensed skydiver, he has 500 jumps so far—and is a 2x Ironman Triathlete. 💪

But as a kid, the path to his successful and fulfilling life wasn’t a given. “I grew up with massive ADHD, but undiagnosed,” says Peter, who shares he was constantly in trouble for disrupting class. “It wasn’t until my late 30s that I actually got diagnosed – I realized that my ‘acting out,’ and all my crazy and weird ideas that made me as successful as I’ve become, all came from my ADHD,” says Peter.

His newest book, The Boy With the Faster Brain, aims to help kids and parents see ADHD as a superpower.

Head to the link in our bio ☝️ for details of the book, Peter’s parenting strategies, and the advice he’d give himself as a kid dealing with ADHD. Plus, his local NYC favorites (tagged here).

Ask any mom what one of the hardest parts of her day is and she’ll say “planning dinner” (or any meal of the day)! 🥘

Ask the moms who feel a little *less* stressed about this part of the day and they’ll say they spend a few minutes planning meals for the week. 👍

Whether it’s a mental note taking, jotting your ideas on a post-it note or having a legit breakfast, lunch and dinner meal notebook, taking 5, 15, or 50 minutes to think about “what’s for dinner” will make a difference.

This week, try using some of these Trader Joe’s hacks for getting food on the table quickly — and cheaply! Link in bio for all the details. ☝️

No Sunday Scaries here 😎 Taylor Swift opened

No Sunday Scaries here 😎

Taylor Swift opened her Eras Tour and the 💪 vibe was everything - and a good reminder to Moms that you’re still you, even if the “Mom” you looks and feels different from pre-kids you. 😘

Tip: If you can’t find that ✨, take a look at how your kid looks at you when you pick them up from school, or get home from work, or they first wake up. 🥰

And don’t forget #selfcareisntselfish.
