He's still my therapist mommy. All the time really. Maybe it's getting to be the therapist mommy of a teenager or something. You can still cry for mommy when you need him, but at other times you see how human mommy can be, and it's kind of scary.
I suppose that I wonder how such a very mortal guy can be the superhero-mommy I need some times. I hope I remain good at putting a cape on him when I need to.
I want to live in the perfect world. :(
You know, with my son it was him pushing me away and me obligingly stepping back to give him the distance he requested. I wonder if that's how it seems to most parents. I don't *think* that's what's happening with my therapist. I don't think either of us is pushing, although I do wonder if my therapist deliberately lets me see his humanness in this stage of therapy.
