We’ve all heard the saying: it takes a village to raise a child. For new daddies Brian and Ty, their village needed to be formed well before any children arrived. This docuseries chronicles their love story from their meeting at Gay Disney, through the circuitous route of family planning, donor-seeking, and surrogacy, and ultimately to their little love Leo. This series is a love letter to the village that made Leo’s life possible and will be enjoyed by anyone who loves Brian and Ty, enjoys a feel-good story or wants insight into family planning - queer otherwise.
