This is an update to a thread that I originally posted a while back. If you want to kow the background here is the link, http://www.crossdressers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=65439
My Sister in Law arrived for her extended stay with my Wife and I last thursday. Up to the very day of her arrival I really had not been sure how or even IF I would tell her about Dawn. My Dear Wife and I have had countless conversations on how best to approach this matter and each time we would come away undecided.
So, last evening being Friday, and that means it is our usual allocated day that we do our fingernail painting and manicures, my Wife had thankfully prewarned Sis that we do this regularly and that she was free to participate ar not.....her choice. Sis was very excited at the opportunity to participate and did so!
That was surprise number one.
As we are all three working on our nails and just chit chating, there is a knock on the front door. It happens to be my Mother coming over for a visit. Not really a big deal because she already knows about me painting my nails regularly. She does not know about Dawn. She comes in, takes a seat at the table and joins in the conversation. All the while she is watching me do my nails and giggling about it. Everyone just continues on when Sis finally says to everyone in general that she thinks it is "just incredibly fantastic that a husband actually likes doing something with his wife that is not normally something a man would do" (nails). At this point my mother opened her mouth laughing "yeah, and I'll bet you have a wig too". Without missing a beat my response was "Yes, I do. As a matter of fact I have three!"
That was surprise number two.
And now for surprise number three!
Well, you might imagine that it got a little awkward at this point. But you would be wrong. Well, ok, it got awkward for Mom. As I then asked her "Is there anything else you would like to know?" Her reply was a resounding "NO!" Not long afterwards she kindly excused herself and retreated home. As soon as she was out the door, I knew in my own mind this was it......I am not letting this moment get away. I turned to my Sister in Law and asked "Have you ever known anyone that is considered Transgendered?" Immediatly her reply was "Yes". I then told her that I also am Transgendered. From this point she was facinated, thrilled and unbelievably understanding. After all of her questions were answered by both me and my Dear Wife, there came a breif moment of silence. I could no longer stand it, I point blank asked her if she would like to meet Dawn? She did not bat an eye, she said, " absolutley! When? It was getting fairly late by then, but , I asked my Wife, "do you think I have enough time? She said, "sure, go for it."
At this point I am going to shorten it up a little. I can go over the details with everyone if you ask. I just have to say that first when I revealed Dawn to Sis, it was one of the most beautiful moments in my life. As I came around the corner, I looked at her, she looked at me, her mouth almost seemed to hit the floor as she gasped and said " You're gorgeous!!!" " I cannot believe it" she said. She jumped up, nearly at a run, reaching me, we embraced in a sisterly type hug. Well, of course I was absolutely in heaven. The rest of the evening the three of us were making plans for shopping trips...en femme of course and out of town weekend trips as well. We're even planning to see a couple of plays at the local theaters all going as sisters!
It is going to be a fabulous four months! And, a whole new life for my Wife and I since we now know others can know about this and enjoy it too! Though, we will be very cautious in who gets the honor of knowing.
Thanks for listening ladies and I hope that everyone who has not had as open a relationship as mine has developed into, gets that opportunity and joy!
