Chelsea Kuhn & Amber

We’re Amber and Chelsea—two moms raising medically complex kids who have decided to embrace the joy in the journey. Instead of asking, “Why us?” we’ve chosen to say, “Why not us?” and lean into the beauty, chaos, and unexpected humor of it all.

Amber, a former teacher turned entrepreneur, is the owner of Better Together Playnasium, an adaptive play gym designed for all kids to play, connect, and thrive. That’s where our paths crossed, and an instant friendship was formed. Chelsea, once immersed in the fashion world, found her passion in entrepreneurship and homeschooling. Together, we bring a unique blend of experience, perspective, and a whole lot of laughter.

Between us, we have four incredible kids: Amber’s, Kai and Kameron, and Chelsea’s, Kinnen and Wesley. Each of them brings their own perspective on life, teaching us resilience, strength, and the magic in everyday moments. We know firsthand what it’s like to juggle therapies, doctor visits, and the emotional rollercoaster of raising both neurodivergent and neurotypical children.

That’s why we created Lemon Cake—a space where parents of disabled kids can find laughter, community, and encouragement. There are so many incredible resources available for navigating medical complexities, but we noticed a gap: Where was the humor? The joy? The moments that remind us that even on the hardest days, we can still laugh?

So here we are. Whether you’re a seasoned medical parent or just starting out on this journey, you belong here. This is a place for real talk, belly laughs, and the kind of encouragement that reminds you: You can do this.
