Life Does Go On

I feel that it is important to teach my children that no matter what life may throw our way, life will go on. In an effort to do just that, I am currently planning to go on a trip in November. The trip was planned before THE NEWS arrived, so it would be conceivable that cancelling the trip might be prudent. However, Kira's doctor has assured me that she can still travel, albeit it in a body cast. Travelling will definitely be more complicated for me, but for her it will show her that bumps in the road do not have to change everything. You can still get out and enjoy life even if you are held back by circumstances.

Find ways to show your children that you may encounter problems and still accomplish the things you want to accomplish. Let them know that it's okay to keep moving forward and life doesn't stop just because issues may arise.
