I cried through the whole first episode - Bedroom. Why does this show hit me in the feels?!?!!
At the end of February, we moved to a new house - much bigger, in a lot better neighborhood, and my daughters got their own rooms for the first time. And it was awful for the first month or so. The other house was the home of every single memory and holiday and birthday and special event - they shared a room there and had slept in the same room since before birth, given that they are twins.
I was the last one out moving the last few things, and eventually I simply could not go in their old room with it completely barren of all their stuff, most of which we sold as they had outgrown it.
We watched that episode about a month ago after downloading the first 37 episodes and all 4 of us were weighed down by how close to home it struck. We watched it again yesterday and it was not as heavy.
Rain - as someone else said - is an epic episode. A good reminder for parents that sometimes something that is really important to your kid, even if it seems silly, is totally worth doing to spend that time together.
