A few weeks ago, I got a little pamphlet in the mail, and it was all about being prepared in case of an emergency. It went through things like what to do in case of fire, earthquake, flood, ect. It talked about making a plan with your family, and actually practicing that plan, so that everyone knows what to do, and where to go in such an emergency. And in the back, it had a checklist for a 72 hour kit. At my mom's, I know I have a backpack that has a kit, but hasn't been updated probably since I was 12....Now that I'm on my own AND I have a toddler, I've started making my own kit, to keep in the car. I dont have much extra space in my apartment, and if there ever is an emergency, I wont have time to grab the kit, because I'll be busy grabbing Makayla.
While doing some research, I came across this blog http://preparedldsfamily.blogspot.com, and it's helped so much! No one really wants to think about having to actually be in an emergency and use their kits...but it's so much more scary to think about being stuck with no kit...especially with kids!
I love you blog layout!! These are my favorite colors right now... mustard yellow and gray. Good picks. My Mother-in-law got us going on our emergency kits. Very good thing to have.
