I am so glad you're asking AND having your needs met

Having T be SO willing to meet my needs used to freak me out, because I was so not used to it. I went through a phase of asking for EVERYTHING in the world, just to see. Could I wear his watch? Could I try on his glasses? Could I go through his desk drawers? Could I take his rolling desk chair into the parking lot and have him push me around? Could I put things in the shredder? (no, yes, no, no, yes).

Now, I just really love it. I love knowing that I can ask for what I need, and if it's something I can't have, I won't get in trouble, or shamed, or whatever. And if it's something I CAN have, he'll give it to me, willingly, with no strings attached.

It's helping me learn the ways I want to say "yes" and "no" to my kids when they express their needs.
