This is really hard because there have been a lot of great moments. But the one that means the most, is an interpretation he made for me around one of my responses to being abused. I have carried this particular thing around for years, thinking it was just so...bad, I guess. After finally telling him about it, he calmly looked at me and said, "why would you expect a 10 year old to have words for that, let alone know how to deal with it?" It changed everything. I had never considered my actions in the context of being a child. I had always looked back with the adult overlay. It was like a huge weight being lifted.
