Last night I was working at the Catholic high school, for the end of year concert. As I began cleaning up, two women approached, and said 'Paula, right?'.
Yup. 'Our kids are graduating, so we won't see you again. We've seen you here for four years, and just never said Thank You.'
If they've been coming to parent events for four years, they've seen me for 2 1/2, as a guy, and 1 1/2 as a woman. No one has ever had a comment, good or bad, about me switching sides, in fact, I was wondering if anybody had noticed LOL. It's always nice to get thanks for a job well done, but extra special when it was clear they knew I had transitioned, and were still just happy I was there.
