Found out I'm becoming a full-time guardian, on short notice...? How do you adjust?

...See more Hey there everyone! Apologies for not knowing where exactly to post this. But, just thought I'd ask, in case anyone has some pointers for a situation I've found myself in. Long story short, I'm being given fulltime (kinship) custody, of my little nephew (5.5 yrs old), on VERY short notice-- and am feeling quite unprepared and clueless. How on earth do you transition from being a part-time aunt, to a full-time, 24/7 parent, in a blink? It's already felt equally awkward for both myself, and my nephew (who is used to me being his silly, goofy, crazy aunt). But, trying to make it work out! :)
