I am staying with David, Signe, and Annika in Victoria, BC, Canada on the weekend of my 2nd Re-Birthday, and they got me a cake! Squeee! ❤️ I count my Re-Birthdays since I first started hormone therapy.

Two years ago, for the very first time, nervous and afraid, I snuck out of my house in girl-mode, went to the park, and took a selfie of myself. Today, I confidently returned to that same place as myself and took a new photo.

First time ever wearing a crop top! I am very Very self-conscious of my, er, figure or lack thereof. Buying this crop top and wearing it in public was a big step for me!

It’s very hard for me to pin-point the exact moment I decided to start my journey, but I do celebrate the day I started hormone therapy as my Re-Birthday. Hanako is one year old today, and it’s been the best year of my entire life. Dinner (and desert!) at View 202 in Redding, California.

I have been waiting my whole life to go to a nice event and wear a Little Black Dress!
