My son has moved completely in this time. Not just for the weekend or a week, but 100% settled back into the nest.
He didn’t come without resistance because mom is strict.
Compared to his father, I am strict. Ask John and he will say I’m not strict enough. Go figure.
So I get my second egg back in the nest by default. His dad told him to fly his coup and his aunt said he couldn’t nest there.
Interestingly enough, in his first day with mama bird, he has paid his fine to avoid going to jail and applied for approximately ten jobs.
He also has a new set of rules to live by.
1. Get a job.
2. Earned money will go towards living here and towards a car.
3. Get a driver’s license.
4. Clean up after yourself.
5. Do your laundry.
6. No sneaking out of the house or anyone in.
7. No illegal activities, period.
8. Stealing and lying is unacceptable.
9. Cook. (most likely the easiest for him to follow as he loves to cook)
10. Shower daily.
These rules are pretty simple. He starts with no privileges and must earn my trust.
My Third Egg is thrilled that her brother has moved in. They were downstairs in Zeth’s new bedroom and Tesla asked, “Are you going to live here forever?”
I yelled down, “God, I hope not!”
That cracked Egg #2 up.
Wish him and me luck.
Say a prayer too,
~P.
Good luck to you all!
Thank you! I’m pretty sure I can get him on track. 😉
I’m sure you can too 🙂
