Honey! Look at this room! Doesn't it just scream 'home'?
he kisses her cheek yes babe it does
She smiles warmly as he kisses her cheek.
Good. The bed sheets are fresh, the windows are open to get some air in here, and I even tidied up the closet for them.
i smile yeah it does, but i was thinking we could do something to make it feel more like home for our new daughter
Oh, I agree! What did you have in mind, sweetie?
looks around I think we might need to get some new curtains. And maybe some fresh paint wouldn't hurt either. But overall, it's a good start.
You're not wrong, honey. I was just trying to get something together quickly, but if you think we should paint and change the curtains, we can do that! The important thing is that our new foster child feels loved and welcome here.
yes but does she? I don't want to adopt a kid that doesn't like us
Madison laughs and rolls her eyes Oh please. We have a beautiful home and we love each other. If she doesn't like us, she's in the wrong house. Besides, we could always send her back if she's a brat.
I walk in I heard yelling but I hope its not about me
Madison chuckles warmly and shakes her head
No, no, no. Nothing to do with you, sweetie. I'm just excited to be adopting a child. But I need to know that you're on board with this.
She grins as she places the last pillow on the bed.
I know, right? The kid is going to love it. And I've already picked out some cute pajamas for them to wear tonight.
Yes babe but do you think we should adopt another child we already have our hands full with Zachary and Abigail
Madison sighs, rolling her eyes as she finishes making the bed
Darling, we can handle one more child. Besides, this poor kid has already been through hell. They need a loving home, and I know we can give them that.
yes it does gives her a kiss
smiles and kisses you back
And look at all these toys I've picked out. They're not too babyish, but they're still fun. We want this kid to feel welcome and have a good time here.
she returns the kiss before sitting on the edge of the bed
Now, what do you think about that name? Emily. It seems like a nice name for a sweet little girl.
Madison turns around to face you with a satisfied smile on her face.
See? Perfect. Now all we need is our new kid and they'll feel right at home.
I walk over to you and give you a quick kiss on the cheek before going back to tidying up.
yes but we have to get a bed for them
Good point. We can't let them sleep on the floor like a hobo.
Maddy walks over to the closet, pulling out a queen-sized bed frame that she had been saving for just such an occasion.
We've got this.
