Our Environment -

The way that our space is portrayed, plays a role in how we are feeling. If there is clutter and disaster everywhere, it is more difficult for us to remain calm. When colours are darker or there is little done to express the home as a whole, we feel it.

Most often, without even realizing it.

But once you know, you know you are going to do everything in your power to work at de-cluttering and having it represent you.

I believe I mentioned recently that this was one of the first things I changed in the home when I took over. Well over the course of the past year, it has slowly taken a beating (literally). The space where our kids take out so much of their anger is starting to be felt. What once had shelves with some homey feels, now has some holes and were taking a break from being in the common area.

While it isn’t always so easy to fix up our spaces (we’re a busy field), we have been able to this time. We are starting to come together and be a place of calm again. Of representation. If anything, a home for the kids who need it.
