"We feel guilty when we go through difficult times and we feel like we're somehow shorting or cheating our kids’ education, when the reality is those are the teachable moments, those are the defining moments for our family, for us as a family and being more cohesive, but also for our kids’ education, understanding what it looks like to overcome obstacles together, to problem solve, to work through emotional things together that are difficult." ~ Durenda Wilson
