uking+FollowA Midnight Scare: Protecting My Kids on a Family Camping AdventureLast weekend, I took my two little ones on a camping trip deep in the Southern Utah mountains. The crisp air and starry skies made for a magical evening—until I was jolted awake in the middle of the night by the sound of footsteps near our tent.
