have revealed they don’t hide any sad news going on around the world from their kids.
Nicole and Keith have two children together, Sunday Rose, 9, and Faith, 6, and both are filled with ongoing questions about current events, the good and the bad.
“We keep a very honest conversation between our kids,” Nicole told Us Weekly.
With close ties to the country music scene through musician husband, Keith, Nicole knew she had to be very honest about the recent mass shooting in Las Vegas, especially as the pair couldn’t hide their own sorrow over the incident.
“This tragedy, it so effected the country music in such a massive way, they knew, they saw us dealing and they’re so connected to us they were like, ‘What’s wrong?'” She explained to Us Weekly.
“So you know, we’re all in it together trying to raise our children in this time, so how do we navigate it? How do we protect yet still give them strength and still keep them moving forward? And focusing on what’s a beautiful thing about this world?”
The couple said the family find solace in going to church on a Sunday.
“Our family depends upon an enormous amount of questions and love and support, and we’re trying to guide a 6-year-old and a 9-year-old girl right now into the world,” she continued.
Keith added that you can not underestimate the power of transparency in parenting, even if it doesn’t always come easy.
