Iron Will’s message for World Down Syndrome Day? Relentless. Forward. Progress. Every member of our family had a part to play in this video, and Sierra 2 (Son #2) produced the entire thing. So it’s with heartfelt and humble appreciation of how blessed we are to have Iron Will... show more

Andrew, God Bless you & your family for always sharing #IronWill’s love & passions. Like Will, our youngest son Dillon since his birth to now 23 years of age continues to amaze & inspires us every day! His love & passions are authentic & genuine without strings attached!

Im stationed near you at Scott AFB, maybe we can meet up sometime. I love all your advocacy work. My family and I travel the country going to Down Syndrome Conferences. Here’s a pic of my buddy. Our DS Walk team name is “Braxton’s Battalion.”

Thank you for sharing. The "TEAM" did an awesome job on this. As always, Will's smile brightens the day..

Wonderfully made video! I can’t help but think after watching this and following Will, that how much better the world would be if we all had a little Will in our lives. Your family is an inspiration!

God shows up in the small moments—the ones that remind us miracles don’t have to be big to be beautiful. Iron Will made a PB&J sandwich all by himself and it was pretty epic. For him and for us! #IronWill #DownSyndrome #TeamIronWill #ChampionPossibility

This video will likely be hidden, just like our voices have been silenced before so the world doesn’t see the destruction they’ve caused here. If this video reaches you, please don’t scroll in silence. Support me with a word just one word to remind us we are not alone. For the past two weeks, I’ve been working alone to build a simple shelter for my family, to protect us from the cold and fear. It’s exhausting and the conditions are harsh… Please, acknowledge this effort and support us with a word or a share.

Each Christmas, the youngest member of our household lays the Infant Jesus to rest in His crib as we focus on the day’s greatest gift - Christ’s entry into this broken world - hope manifest. The task now falls to the wee little man and previous years have proven, well, eventful… But this year was perfect. As many of you know, Iron Will is also a huge fan of birthdays and thought it fitting to honor his Savior in the best way he knew how. Enjoy! Merry Christmas! God bless! #IronWill #DownSyndrome #TeamIronWill #Christmas

BAM! The hospital is paroling the wee little man! He had a good night, his oxygen levels were more consistent and he’s responding well to the antibiotic regimen so they’re sending him home! He’ll be on oxygen at home and we’ll keep monitoring him, but this is huge! Besides, they’re unsure of how best to contain Iron Will’s dynamic personality and energy. And “bedside baseball” has a shelf life… 😂😂 Thank you all for your unrelenting prayer and support! What a gift you are to our family! God bless! #IronWill #DownSyndrome #TeamIronWill

I have arrived in Cameroon. I come as pastor and shepherd to be alongside the Anglican faithful, and assure them they are not forgotten. I bring with me the prayers of our global Anglican family. I look forward to being alongside our beloved brothers and sisters in the Diocese of Cameroon - to accompany them, encourage them, and hear about their lives in this land. “In a time of terrible conflicts around the world, and so much suffering here in Cameroon, I come with the message of the Gospel. This is always a message of peace. It is always about the infinite value of every person made in God’s image. And it is always about the hope we have in Christ - who rose from the dead to bring us new life. I invite Anglicans around the world to pray for the Church here and for the people of Cameroon. May these coming days be a blessing and encouragement to us all - and renew our commitment to be bearers of the good news we have in Jesus Christ.

“Burden to society,” my ass! Iron Will was intrinsically valuable from the moment he was conceived. And he walked out of the womb with a solid work ethic. In fact, in the face of adversity, discrimination and doubt, this little dude gets more done by 0900hrs every morning than most of his detractors do all year. He wants to contribute and he loves knowing he’s part of the team. And the heck with his 25% lower muscle tone - the wee little man moves virtual mountains at pace - without complaint. Doesn’t matter what they accomplish, are able to do, or how they communicate, this world is infinitely better because everyone with Down syndrome is in it. And I… well, I am a better man because I know Iron Will, learn from him, and was blessed with the opportunity to love him. Full stop. #TeamIronWill #DownSyndromeAdvocacy #IronWill #SayYesToPossibility

Stay tuned, continue spreading the word—big things are coming up.

Every day, I feel so blessed we get to live our lives in the greatest country in the history of the world. This 250th is a celebration of how incredibly this nation has endured, how consequentially liberty has been preserved, and how promising our future remains as long as every generation does its part to defend it. Great to join Will Cain on this very special July 4th.

My friends, Knowing how much y’all care for the wee little man, I thought I’d invite you in as we sang “Happy Birthday” to him! The XO and Tango Tango made him this spectacular Bearhead cake and he was over the moon. He loves birthdays anyway, but this one really hit home for Iron Will and for all of us. Enjoy! #IronWill #TeamIronWill #DownSyndromeAdvocacy

900,000 followers on Facebook… WOW! This family of ours has gotten BIG, and I still can not quite believe it. I am so grateful for this journey and for every single one of you who has chosen to be here with us. Thank you for every follow, every like, every comment, but even more than that, thank you for every smile and every “hi” I get on the roads of Ala Igbo and beyond. It genuinely blows my mind that simply sharing our family life can connect with so many people. With everything happening in the world, with so much war, division, and racism, I hope that sharing our ordinary life as people from different backgrounds simply living, loving, and raising a family together could be a small reminder that we have more in common as humans than what divides us. I am simply grateful that so many of you choose to be part of this journey with us. And of course, a special thanks you to the one that has been with me from the beginning of this journey Ezenwa Isuofia

Many have said that the differences and divisions in our world are too great for us to come together for the common good. But the Summit of the Future showed that with a spirit of dialogue and compromise, we can join forces to steer our world to a more sustainable path. As this year’s #UNGA activities wind down, we must remember that this is not the end. It is in all our interests to choose the future we want and to guide our world towards it. The journey continues. Let’s keep going.
