Okay...so by State Law I could technically have FOUR boys in my second bedroom.  Each child only needs 35 square foot of space and my second bedroom is technically large enough for four since it is 156 square foot.

After church we went to buy organizational supplies.  We bought three rolling stands for each boy to keep underwear, socks, and pajamas in.  We bought a small tote for each boy to keep whatever (mainly toys) under their bed.  We bought a shoebox size tote for each boy to put their "special" keepsakes.  Those have camp photo albums, letters, medals, and other miscellaneous photos in them.

T came over and took Older Boy and Younger Boy shopping with her while Middle Boy and I had family therapy and then worked on unpacking his stuff.  They came home and she acted as the drill sargeant keeping things on task.  Younger Boy chose to not help for a good part of the time and as a result lost the use of his phone for the length of time everyone was working while he wasn't.

We ended up with A LOT of things needing to go to either Foster Care Closet or Open Door Mission.  The boys are excited to be giving the things away to "help other kids".

There is NO WAY on earth another child could fit in that room.  There is virtually no space to walk in the room as it is.

They are all happy about the way the room turned out.

We talked about how proud I am they all helped (eventually) to make it a space they like and where they feel at home.

Praises for home and the things we have.  Praises for generous hearts who want to help others less fortunate or in need.

Prayers for close quarters and the adjustment is going to require.
