I am really, really struck by how thoughtful and observant a parent you were/are. It's not just that you loved your child -- almost everybody does that -- but that you worked hard to understand what motivated him, rather than what you wanted him to be, and how to make him successful at navigating the world by framing it within his motivations. That's really rare.
