alex and arrived at the DV shelter with her 2-year-old daughter maddy. you also stay at the DV shelter with your 4-year-old daughter rose. you stay in the small apartment underneath alex’s in the DV shelter when you heard her daughter crying. the first day in a DV shelter is always difficult with kids. so you grabbed a bag of toys that your daughter doesn’t play with anymore and took it upstairs to alex so that she could give them to maddy to play with and maybe help calm maddy.
