Gradually, the children began to talk to me about school and their friends, their initial hesitation dissipating.

Their laughter, which seemed like a distant memory, began to return, filling my heart with cautious optimism.

It had been an arduous journey, but it had brought us closer together. We were finally on the road to a stronger, more united family.
