I realized last session that I was telling a little white lie to T and after I said it, I corrected it. I don't need those little lies standing between us. What happened was asked me how long I met with this child therapist working with our kids, and I said vaguely, "a couple of hours," because I felt kind of sheepish that I had met with her for 4 hours. Then I told him the truth. He was surprised we had met so long, but this was not a major glitch for us. Why did I feel I had to lie about that initially? I'm going to try to do that less. Not just with him, but with everyone in my life.
