I think it's a splendid idea. I wanted to give my t something of mine to hold onto last summer when we had an almost 3 week break. But I couldn't bring myself to give it to her.
So, no, it's no stupid at all. And the group leader didn't think so either.
And part of the difference of giving them something of ours to hold onto to vs. having something of theirs, we want our ts to hold us in their minds and hearts while we are apart too.
"Don't forget about me." Your t wouldn't. He probably worries and/or thinks about you everyday. "I wonder how Daisy is doing today."
Vacations are hard. Keeping busy and distracted works well for me. Doing something special for myself, like a hot stone massage, works too. Take one of those therapy hours and start Christmas shopping.
I'll be around too.
