The Melancholic Christmas Song

This song is a heartfelt tune that beautifully captures the essence of missing someone during Christmas and the longing to have them back.

Strengthening Their Relationship through Parenthood

Calling each other “mejores amigos,” Wheeler says that parenthood has brought them even closer. They make sure to take care of each other and adapt to every change that comes their way.
