guest room to boy’s room
My boys have been sharing a room from the point when my youngest, Calvin, was sleeping through the night. They are 19 months apart and both boys, so it’s just made sense to have them share a room. Now that they are nine and almost eight, I’m seeing that they are both craving their own space. […]

Dear reader, A few minutes after I put my sons to bed a few weeks ago, I heard the sound of feet on the steps. “Mommy?” My oldest son had crept out of bed with something on his mind. I walked around the corner to the bottom of the steps. “What is it, buddy?” Earlier […]
