So, so far my children have learned that life isn't safe and their home isn't safe. They don't sleep in their rooms. They fall asleep on the living room and floor and when I go to bed, I wake them/carry them into my room where the three of us sleep. I'm having a hard enough time trying to sleep let alone with two others in my bed. So the idea is to re-paint their rooms.
Maybe then it will be a new room for them.
It won't be the same.
It won't be the place where people came in and robbed them and went through their personal things.
Maybe then they won't feel or remember the horrific violation.
Maybe then they can rest and sleep again in peace.
Maybe then....
The kids are at their dads this weekend. I hope to get started on one room then. My daughter has chosen what she wants and it is the polar opposite of what it is right now.
Maybe then....
(pictures will come as the work progresses)
