dear son,
i hope you are having a good time at summer camp. i bet you didn't know that it has always been my dream to send one of my children to overnight camp as i never had that opportunity when i was younger. how is the food there? how cold is the lake? have you made any friends yet?
the reason i am writing is to let you know that i have been thinking about how i have been treating you recently. and more specifically, how i have been placing so much pressure on you to do well. now you know that i have always wanted what was best for you and your brother. but sometimes, in my zeal to see you excel, i lose sight of the bigger picture.
above all, i want you to be happy. i want you to do the things that you enjoy doing. and i want you to know that i will always support you in anything you choose to do with the rest of your life.
and finally, you don't have to make me happy in order to make me proud of you.
sincerely,
