DJ is the happiest, sweetest little guy with the BIGGEST personality. He’s incredibly curious and observant—he wants to know what everyone is doing and definitely doesn’t want to miss a thing! He’s smiley, playful, social, and loves being included in everything Mom & Dad do. Our silly, loving little ray of sunshine!
What are Derek James McGowan's favorite activities?DJ loves anything that keeps him busy and lets him explore! He loves playing with his toys, rolling around, bouncing, going on walks, being outside, and watching everything happening around him. But his absolute favorite activity is being wherever Mom and Dad are—preferably right in the middle of whatever we’re doing. He’s our curious little sidekick who never wants to miss out!
What would your family do with $25,000?We would put it toward creating the best future possible for DJ—investing in his education, giving him opportunities to experience the world, and making memories together as a family. More than anything, it would give us the chance to slow down, spend more quality time together, and enjoy these little years that already seem to be going by way too fast.
