Just had the weirdest dream. I dreamed my boys wanted to go to Duke for college. In my dream, I stressed about where we were going to find $695k to send them. So at 1:40 AM, I looked up the tuition at Duke.

I would tell my sons that this is how everyone should view relationships. If you can't make someone's life more beautiful, fun, and profound, then what are you even doing? Making someone's life worse? I don't want my boys to give that, nor do I want them to settle for it.

Not sure if I’ve told this story here before. I was diagnosed with C-PTSD after my boys were born. Early emergency c-section, pain so bad I was passing out, NICU stay, emergency surgery for one of my boys, mom had cancer, full-body rash, plus other things I’m forgetting now. 1/?
