Dear Scott and Ruby: I’ve been thinking a lot lately about death. I’m contemplating my own end, not in a morose way, but in the way one does when reminded that existence on this plane is finite, so preparations should be made. Your father and I have been working on our family trust. We hope to ease your emotional burden when the time comes by taking care of as much of the legal processes as possible ahead of time. We also want to make sure you are provided for, to the best of our ability. We’re facing the loss of our own parents, and it has forced us to face what will eventually be your loss as well, because no one gets out of this life alive.
This is so good! I’m often asked by younger women I work with “how have you been able to do it all” and I always respond with “because I have a great spouse”. Nobody ever asks him how does he “do it all”. WE are able to be successful and achieve the things we do and have a truly wonderful son because WE are partners.
Can't hurt that he's great looking! Wonderful idea to write to the kids. Our family has lost most of it's history as each generation passes. I would love to have a journal/notes from any of the older group of relatives before they passed.

I love this Kira. praying the same for my two.
Thank you again for writing exactly what I needed to hear today. I am sure some day, your children will appreciate this as much as I am right now.
