Welcome to Diapers to Diplomas! If you're wondering where to get started, this short episode will point you in the right direction. 

What should you do when your child begins to show developmental delays? The decision to seek help for your child versus waiting to see if he’ll progress on his own is a decision filled with fear and anxiety. What if your child never catches up? What if you make the wrong choice? Should you wait until your child is older to start therapy? The questions can become overwhelming.

That’s why we’re talking today with Janna Hacker, founder of Janna Hacker & Associates. Since 2009, Janna and her team of 30 therapists have provided speech, occupational, physical, and behavioral therapy services to over 10,000 children. With over 28 years’ experience in speech therapy, Janna has witnessed the profound effect therapy has on helping children overcome obstacles so they can soar to new heights.

Sometimes, God completely changes the script with your child. Everything is going well, and you have his future already envisioned. But suddenly, things take a sharp turn, and you have no clue how his life is going to play out. In fact, you’re just trying to figure out how you are going to get him to the next week. And you realize that the God you have put ALL your trust in is allowing everything to go off the tracks. 

On today’s episode we are joined by Kris Hammons, an Indiana native, who now lives in Franklin, TN with his family of six. Kris shares the story of his son, Zacchaeus, who was diagnosed with two types of dwarfism and resulted in being in the NICU for the first 10 months of his life. Kris knows firsthand the difficulties of staying connected to the Lord when your child is in crisis.

Kris shares his story via writing and public speaking. You can find out more and follow him on social media by going to krishammons.com.

Think back to the last time you scrolled through social media. When you saw everyone out having fun, were you happy for your friends, or were you unexpectedly hit with loneliness? Have you lost touch with many of your friends? Does your family not get invited over to other people’s homes very often? You’ve fallen so far off the social map that you’re sure you’re never going to be able to reconnect with anyone again.

Our family has never been what you would call “typical” since we deal with various challenges that many families don’t deal with. We know that it’s easy to wake up and find yourself doing life on an island with no one beside you. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Today, we’re going to help you take the first step in rebuilding a real and authentic community around your family.

Have you ever gotten to the end of a day that was much harder with your child than you were expecting and been so discouraged that you started wondering where God was? Why didn’t he do more? Why was your family still struggling? Was he still committed to you and your family? 

When we became parents 10 years ago, we believe God promised to provide for our boys every step of the way. While the journey has been harder than we expected, we have seen the Lord honor his word multiple times. He has continually used his scripture to show us his commitment and has shown himself faithful. Today, we’re going to show you how he once again used his word to reconfirm his commitment to us and how he desires to do the same with you.
