Dear T,
I didn't expect you to respond to or acknowledge that quick e-mail. Like, I felt silly for sending it and was just going to pretend it didn't happen unless you said anything about it. The fact that you bothered to not only acknowledge the e-mail but say you're sorry you missed us and hope the appointment went well...You're being so nice to me and so accepting...aren't you scared I'll get attached? You know my history...
LT
