Every family should have an emergency plan or a contingency plan of some sort, right? What if a house burnt down, or there is a snow storm that that closes schools while mom and dad are at work, or a bad storm where aunt or uncle live 6 hours away and you need to get in touch to check in on them? There are so many tools that exist for planning now, it is wrong not to take advantage of them. Every family should have at least:
a card with all contact numbers, medications,doctors and nearest relatives numbers
a go bag for each family member and pet
a list of local resources to contact in the event of an emergency
If you had these you would be ready for any emergency, disaster or life event....and of course being a woman of faith, I would also say all these and a prayer, because that is the most effective source of help, I have ever found!
Great ideas here, especially for the pets. A snow storm doesn't stop their need for food, water, favourite blankies and litter (as needed).
