Just thinking about you and hoping you got through the night relatively unscathed :-\
It's tough doing this with them home-but-leaving; it'll actually take a lot of pressure off when he's made the move. It'll also give him a clearer picture of what it'll be like when he has to schedule a visit with his family.
They tend to get really suspicious in the beginning when they notice changes. It's crazy, but make sure he doesn't think things like you set your son up with the idea... one of the biggest paranoid behaviors, because they feel so much guilt, is thinking you are manipulating them with the kids.
Changes also make them angry/suspicious when it makes it harder for them to see why they are leaving. This is good, but the strangest things can be seen as pursuit.
You are doing amazing. Just make sure you truly take some time for you and to get your head out of his mind once in a while. Great job on not returning the call. If it's something that can wait til the next time you see him, it's a good rule of thumb not to call-- or "save it" for when you are going absolutely bonkers without hearing their voice. Ugh. I know, oh do I know.
Keep doing what you're doing-- I saw you giving good advice to others also.
