I have kind of distanced myself I think, I just can't hardly handle all of the sad that's happening lately. <br />I've been thinking about Martin Luther King Day since the kids don't have school and I don't know what they are taught about it so I plan to sit down and chat with them about it and what it means and why it's important. And yes, I'll probably cry, because I always do when I think of these things like inequality and the sad history of our past.
