Keeping Connected: A Dad’s Creative Way to Bridge the Gap
When working parents have to be apart from their little ones, it can be tough. But one dad found a creative way to help his working wife feel connected to their baby, and it’s as charming as it gets!
Meet Jake and Emily
When Emily returned to her job after maternity leave, Jake wanted to make sure she didn’t feel too far away from their adorable son, Max. So, he started sending her fun Dubsmash videos. If you haven’t heard of Dubsmash, it’s a video messaging app that lets you lip-sync to your favorite movie quotes, songs, or sound bites, and it’s super entertaining—especially when you’re featuring a tiny tot like Max!
“It was a bit of a struggle to go back to work. I missed him so much,” Emily shared with a smile. “We had a bit of a challenging birth experience initially, which made being at work even harder. But seeing those videos made it a lot easier.” Jake works weekdays at a museum, while Emily spends her evenings and weekends doing makeup for theater productions. Many parents know that feeling of missing out when they’re not at home, and these videos give Emily a sweet taste of what she’s missing.
Max’s Growing Recognition
Now that Max is a year old, he’s starting to recognize Mommy and Daddy’s silly videos, and he loves to dance along! Jake originally posted a funny clip on Facebook, and after friends encouraged him, he started creating more. “It all began with a little Adele clip, and now I’ve got a whole compilation going!” he said excitedly. They’re even planning an updated version for the next year!
