"Tiny Hands Gathering Wonder, The World Becomes Magic" is a vibrant narrative album celebrating the beauty and complexity of a rainbow family. Jazz vocal artist Kadi Vija shares her journey as a social parent, exploring love, connection, and the unique rhythms of family life.
What
does friendship look like when the family structure defies convention?
How do you build a relationship with a child when traditional roles
