Yeah, it'll be interesting to see how this all pans out. Aside from those challenges, it's been a positive change so far.
This morning I explained to S3 that he's staying at his dad's house tonight. He got all gloomy and said he didn't want to go. Concerned that something was wrong, I asked why he felt that way. He said "because Dad is a rude man who does stinky farts and doesn't say excuse me." I just about died trying to hold in my laughter!
Before he leaves for each visit, he has been talking through the steps of what happens over there, eg. "After Dad picks me up from daycare, I'm going to watch Star Wars, eat dinner, have a bath, go to sleep, then come back home for cuddles and kisses with you." I'm glad he's able to talk it through and understand the process and reassure himself.
