Setting Boundaries For Sarah
Despite Emily’s eye rolls, I doubled down on setting firm boundaries for Sarah’s room. “We need to respect her space,” I emphasized while putting up small reminders around the house. Emily smirked, clearly amused. “Don’t you think this is a little overboard?” she asked. I shook my head firmly. “It’s important she feels safe.” My hope was that the notes would remind Jake and Noah to stay out while giving Sarah a sense of security within her own walls.

Another Visit By Tyler’s Kids
When Tyler and his kids arrived again, I immediately felt my chest tighten. The moment I opened the door, Jake and Noah bolted inside, buzzing with energy. “Hey, guys!” Emily called out warmly, while I forced a smile. “Let’s keep the fun downstairs this time, alright?” I suggested, keeping a close eye on them. Knowing their tendency to sneak off, I braced myself to stay alert for the entire visit.
