Whitney Wilson, a 39-year-old therapist, watches her three children play at a park in the Kansas City suburb of Prairie Village, Kansas, on Friday, June 14, 2024. On Father's Day, she and her wife, Jen Wilson, will pack up their 9-year-old son, 7-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son and take them to visit the sperm donor who made it all possible: David Titterington. To the kids, this-godfather-like figure is alternatively called "bio dad," "donor dad" or "blood father." (AP Photo/Heather Hollingsworth)
One of Jen and Whitney Wilson's most beloved possessions is a trio of images captured in a photo booth a decade ago. The photo strip, taken on Oct. 5, 2013, and shown to The Associated Press on Friday, June 14, 2024, in Prairie Village, Kansas, shows the moment they asked friend David Titterington to help them create a family by donating sperm. Three kids later, Titterington remains part of the kids' life as a godfather figure. On Sunday, this family will celebrate Father's Day together. (AP Photo/Nick Ingram)
