One Father’s P.O.V. is an unwitting collaboration documenting an adventure which began in 2022. My son, John, left his career of 22 years to care fulltime for his three small boys, and three dogs, while his wife was away pursuing a new career. It is a compilation of reflective, playful and poignant everyday moments caught through John’s own lens and share with me in our almost daily messages. But they barely scratch the surface of the sticky, messy, upside-down turmoil, and pure joy of a dad flying solo with his boys. In late August 2023, with their home sold and belongings packed; the family reunited in Gravenhurst to continue their adventure.
