9K

Ahhh so...Last night was 9K's first night living with us. Tonight was the first night doing homework. He has a chart that goes through the end of January and if he completes it, he gets to go on a trip to Big Bear and go snowboarding with his dad. :) Tonight was difficult. It was a lot of 'I've already done this!!!' But yet, he doesn't know the answers and I feel like he's going to end up hating me because I make him work hard and take showers and brush his teeth and his mom does nothing of the sort...Her place is going to become so fun and great while ours transforms from tranquil yet organized to a constant war front. Please tell me it gets easier....

Hmm. Pretty sure it's not going to get easier for a while. He may get into routine and get used to it, but that'll take time. He'll appreciate it in the long run...:)

It is hard. No longer being the fun one and knowing no mater what you do for fun, you will be remembered for the stern structure will be hard to swallow, but after a while, it does get better. ::hugs::

It does get easier, actually. It takes some time to get into the routine, though. It's tough to get all of the boundaries in place, but once they're there? Much easier. It will come.
