I emailed my T last Monday that all my parts were satisfied because she wrote "love T". I thought she'd email back " great" or something. With our new agreement, she now responds to all of my emails within a couple of days. She didn't this time.

I emailed again because of a scheduling change, and also asked if she was busy, or didn't get my email, or maybe didn't respond because I said I was satisfied. She wrote back on Friday that she has been working really hard, and also because I said my parts were satisfied, and she said she was sorry.

My adult self understands and is fine with her reply. No problem at all. My T is a good T and I'm glad she is helping so many others. But little Rainbow is thinking: why did she have to tell me that she worked really hard? What does that even mean? She saw more people than usual? Other clients were challenging? It bothers me. I probably won't mention it because I don't want to jeopardize email again. My T would prefer not to email at all but she is doing it because I asked her. I also told her I wished she would sign her emails the way I want, and she did. I hope I'm not being obnoxious! She could have refused in both cases. Just wondering about stuff before I fall asleep....
