Sketch of a mother holding a baby with an oxygen cannula. Illustration by Josephine Thomason One day while talking about our newborn son who needed to be on oxygen my husband Max and I had an epiphany. "It's like our son is a space explorer! He just needs an oxygen pack to get around." And so the concept of The Littlest Astronaut was born. Max and I both wanted to be astronauts when we were little, so we found the concept of a baby space explorer very appealing.

That's such a creative way to look at your son needing oxygen.
