Sweet Dreams
Sleep Experts employee volunteers honored mothers at Interfaith Housing Coalition during the third annual Mother’s Day dinner and family fun night. Each mother received a pillow or blanket, and children participated in games and activities. When Barbara, a mother of three children ages 2, 3 and 5, enrolled in Interfaith Housing’s Home & Hope Residential Program, both she and her husband, KeJuan, had been sleeping on the floor for three years, and none of her children had ever slept in their own beds. Now all of the children sleep in their own twin bed that they will take with them when they leave the program.

THEY BANGED ON THE DOOR — BEFORE BREAKING IT DOWN.
Of all her jewelry, Elizabeth Reinhart cherished one piece in particular —her grandmother’s engagement ring. This special piece had been reset and given to Reinhart on her 18th birthday. She has been holding onto the ring for 10 years, and planned to keep it as a family heirloom. But unfortunately, a criminal probably now has possession of her cherished ring — or has already pawned it for a quick buck.
“My neighbor actually noticed a girl banging on our door earlier in the day, probably to see if anyone was home,” Reinhart says of the recent burglary. “They had kicked in our locked gate and our family room door.”
The Victim: Matt and Elizabeth Reinhart
The Crime: Burglary
Date: Wednesday, April 27
The neighbor heard the home alarm and went through the front door.
“He thought he heard someone in the house and went out to call 911,” she says. “The police responded quickly.”
Time: 1:50 p.m.
Location: 7200 block of Westbrook
The burglars made off not only with the ring, but also grabbed an iPod, flat-screen television, an Apple MacBook laptop computer and other jewelry. The laptop was a major loss. Reinhart had used the computer for her graduate schoolwork, and to edit and store her new baby’s photos. Reinhart just couldn’t wait to get a new MacBook.
“We went to the store today. We had to get that replaced,” she says. “Thankfully we had a backup external hard drive. And what really makes me mad is that they stole our baby bag. I mean, what are they going to do with that?”
Dallas Police Lt. Mackie D. Ham of the Northeast Patrol Division says a commercial grade lock that can’t be cut with bolt cutters is the best bet for securing a gate, and “a fire-rated safe that is bolted down or placed in the floor, wall or concrete slab” could be a great way to secure expensive jewelry or other items indoors.
