Our Children are Little Heroes, Too!
They are missing their grandparents, extended family, friends and school.
They lack normal routines, and the loss of structure to their day.
Their parents maybe stressed, worried scared and just different.
They overhear talk and news without an understanding of what they hear.
Give your little hero more cuddles, more one-on-one playtime, and an extra dose of patience and forgiveness.
