    My first Thanksgiving as me

    Yesterday was the first time that I was able to have Thanksgiving as me! We had 12 people over to the house and had a great time. It seems like a dream sometimes that I don't want to wake up from. This has been an almost 2 year journey but the last 6 months have really accelerated. I feel so blessed and supported. My son took the attached picture for me.

    Congratulations! Enjoy!

    Congratulations!!

    It is one of the nearly indescribable gifts of transition and acceptance. While it sounds so mundane, just being able to be yourself is one of the most rewarding gifts ever. It clearly shows too.

    hugs,

    Suzanne,

    Congrats on your first Thanksgiving. I also had my first Thanksgiving as me yesterday too, and I had a wonderful time.

    I wish you many more bright and beautiful holidays as your authentic self!!!

    Congrats! Glad it went well. I chose Thanksgiving last year to be the first time my whole family met Paula. It went seamlessly.

    Authenticity while spending a holiday with your family. Something that is treasured.

    I did my first Thanksgiving last year. All of the Christmas presents were for Debbie - because "We like Debbie so much more than Rex".
    I cried tears of joy, I really felt loved by my in-laws and was so grateful.
