It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare, it is because we do not dare that they are difficult.

I like your raise. The 2♠ rebid usually shows a six card suit, and you have doubleton honors and sufficient extras to think you might make game.
Partner had a problem after 2♣, with a bit too much to pass, too few diamonds to preference, too few clubs to raise. Bidding 2♥ (as JEC did) is one possibility (this can't be GF by a passed hand, and regardless of whether it's natural or 4th suit forcing one round it seems an okay choice); others are bidding 2♠ short a card or 2NT a little bit light.
