Giving them a stable environment was far more important than retaining my personal space. After all, children do grow up and leave. They were 7 & 5 when they came to us. They are now 16 & 14.
Bless you M. Elizabeth. You certainly have your place in heaven reserved. Not only do they grow up but the really grow up fast. My oldest son turned 55 last year and it seems like yesterday that I was fixing up his room with his two brothers (3 in a room and also 3 sisters). Now the house is empty and quiet and yes, I do have a large beautiful sewing room in the attic. Sigh!!!
