I CAME HOME TO FIND MY KIDS SLEEPING IN THE HALLWAY — THEN I LOOKED IN THEIR ROOM AND LOST IT
I left my husband with the kids while I went on a week-long trip, thinking it wouldn't be a big deal. But when I got home, I found my boys sleeping on the cold, dirty hallway floor. My heart dropped. Something was wrong. Was there a fire? A flood? No, my husband would've told me. I flicked the light off and carefully stepped over the boys, heading deeper into the house.
I opened our bedroom door — empty. My husband was gone at midnight? That's weird. Then I went to check the boys' room, bracing myself for the worst. As I approached, I heard muffled noises. Quietly, without turning on the light, I cracked the door open to see what was happening and GASPED. ⬇️
