Another First

With womanhood comes all the things our mothers, sisters, and spouses have put up with for years. A month ago I had my first pelvic/speculum exam. Yesterday I had my first mammograms. With all the hype Michele had been putting out I was prepared for REAL PAIN! Instead, it turned out to be uncomfortable, but nothing more. I guess I won't need to repeat this for a few years. At that time we'll need to deal with the breast implants.

Although I've spent the last 17+ months living as a woman full time, at many times I'm still "Dad". My son still calls me "Dad" and my ex refers to me as "Dad" when talking with my son about me. At daycare I've gotten use to "Sammi, your dad is here!" This morning one of the little girls said "Goodbye Sammi's mommy." Maybe I've finally made this transition ;-)

its best night and day, to make you everybody but
yourself - means to fight the hardest battle which any
human being can fight, and never stop fighting."
