Lessons that stand out for me were the lessons around my own childhood and learning how much of an influence my parents parenting still has on my child through me. I've learned so much about all things I've been doing wrong. Not that I blame myself for doing it, I no longer blame my parents for what they've done wrong either. Well for the most part that is ;-).
Furthermore, I feel so much more connected to Thomas. And a lot of things he does show me he feels more secure, more connected with me as well. He's such a beautiful person with such a great mind. He's so not like me, and I'm beginning to appreciate him being himself more and more every day. Nope: he's definitely not a mini-me! And I'm glad for it!
