Tell Sasha to give you a kiss, it's from me!
I agree with Karen- the physical bruises will heal quicker.. It took me I would say a year before raised voices did not scare me- knowing what would come next- but then one day I realized something totally in my heart- I AM SAFE- AND ALTHOUGH THINGS MAY NOT BE RIGHT- I AM SAFE- AND THINGS ARE getting better in tiny ways.. Look at the little things- not the big.. Example- our first week alone- me and my daughter, I went shopping at walmart and we bought spaculas.. ( yes - the things that turn eggs).. Well- we had a spacula party in the house.. lol.. Look at the little- it works..
