Dear T,
I'm thinking about that thing you said about parenting, where you said I act like I'm expected to enjoy every aspect of it. But I don't have to, that some parts aren't fun, and that's OK. And I think that's something we need to explore more. As I think it's a case of my holding myself to unrealistic standards, like with some other things in life. Maybe if I could take it easier on myself about that, I'd be doing a bit better right now.
Also, maybe I need to talk to you about the other thing, too.

Love,
LT
