    I can't believe what my wife just did! And it's great.

    As I've mentioned numerous times before, my wife does not accept my CDing, and we're in a DADT relationship. All the more surprising for what she did tonight.

    We were in the process of cleaning out the basement storage area and my wife came up to me and said, "I can't believe I'm doing this, but these would be good to store jewelry in", and she hands me a couple of those divided plastic boxes for storing crafts, or screws or jewelry. I don't think she even knows that I have any jewelry (which of course I do), she's just making an assumption since she knows that I go to a GNO once or twice a month.

    I don't know what the official rule is, but I'm going to count this as the first thing my wife got for Steffi. And since my birthday is next week, I'm going to assume that these were an early birthday present.
    Hi, I'm Steffi and I'm a crossdresser... And I accept and celebrate both sides of me. Or, maybe I'm gender fluid.

    Nice Steffi. Little things count. I am happy for you - actually for both of you. By the way - an early Happy Birthday.

    Did you tell her that you appreciated the act? That was a big move on her part.

    Hi Steffi,

    I would take that as a gift for both you and Steffi. What a great moment that must have been. Hopefully there will be more.

    Hugs

    Quite possibly it may be for storage of the present that will sit next to your cake, Happy Birthday.

    That's great, Steffi. Happy for you!

    As others have said, don't assume she knows you appreciate this gesture. Tell her so.

    All the best,

    Also Happy Birthday. Her action shows that your relationship is strong and though it may be DADT, she still accepts.

    Happy birthday Steffi, make sure your wife knows you appreciate the gift. I am one of the lucky one that my wife knows and accepts what I do. It makes all the difference in the world to have some one you can talk openly to about what's going on in your life. have a great day.

    That's really nice. I remember my unaccepting wife gave me some old lipstick she never used anymore. I almost cried. Okay, I did. The little things matter.

    Happy birthday.
