Granted, it's a small living area, and truly, I remember those early days when the children were young. But honestly, how much space can the sleeping arrangments for a one year old child occupy?
Be that as it may, it is hopeful that you understand that whatever decisions you choose to act or not act upon
now, and how proactive you decide
you are going to be about your situation, regardless of how long such things may take to finalize, that the 1-2 year time period you mentioned is going to pass anyway. Going out on a limb here, but I assume (yes, yes... I know) that you don't look want to look back and have one of those
'I wish I'd done (this/that/the other) when I first considered it, cause look where I'd be now' sort of moments, do you?
PS: Hope I didn't step on the toes (of Senior members, et al.) due to the lack of absence of any legal material, but I was compelled to comment.
In any event, any collective refrain from biting off of my head is much appreciated on my end.
