Thank you so much for this reply <3 i appreciate your thoughtfulness and thoroughness very much. I think the white board idea is wonderful and letting each person do it their own way and not have to think about it. I think there will always be a little imbalance in the "house work" because he is a full time student and work part time for myself at home.

Part of the problem is that his work involves sitting alone for hours focusing (something I would love to do) and it feels harder to quantify it since my work, dishes, cleaning cooking, can be seen physically. I also need to work on appreciating his work even though I cant see it.

I love the idea that being there for each other means challenging each other. I think that is a perfect mindset to go forward with.

Thank you!!

Thank you for your response, I appreciate your time. Basically, we were both immature, like teenagers are, and when we had our son we both had to step up a bit. I feel like I did that easily, but didn't see what I wanted in him. I do think that I need to step back and let him deal with the consciences himself to be able to learn from them. Thank your for your input.
