Chanel and her husband, Torrey Smith, do everything within their power to give their sons the support that they need to thrive. Torrey discussed the importance of being a proactive parent in a blog post a few years back.
“When I was younger NO ONE came to any of my games,” he explained. “It wasn’t until my wife started to get upset with me when I didn’t tell her about events that honored my accomplishments, that I started to think about it,” Smith added. “I now understand the importance of being there. I will be there for every doctor’s appointment, band recital, spelling bee, sporting event, school banquet.”
TJ is Chanel and Torrey Smith’s oldest child. He celebrates his third birthday tomorrow!
