Welcome back! I agree writing it down provides a commitment and then working slowly (baby-steps, pieces, or chunking into like pieces will help). And post often.

hi Hudbud: How's your little guy adjusting to his new 'big boy' bed? I recall when our guys were little the easiest way to cope was to keep it simple. Seasonal clothes that fit were in the bureau, those they had outgrown were removed to a box, those not yet worn were handy in a bin under their beds.

We rotated toys and books [due to age and gifts] so that they were fun and manageable. It's fun to sit on the floor and tell a made-up story about a little boy called _______who was so-ooo big he could put away his hot wheels, or yellow lego, or [whatever toys are favorites] Whenever all the 'work' was done, it was pj time so dad could read a story.

Hi Cyd,
Well he has asked a couple times to take the beds back because he doesn't want them. I live in South Florida so we don't change our clothes out too much but the rotating the toys is a great idea. He has access to all of his toys but I will add that to the to do list.

I am also off for summer so I have many projects planned. Baby steps Baby steps.
