My sister (Laura), mother (Linda) and me, toast mothers day 2010. This is my new favorite pic. It symbolizes something that I never would even dare dream could ever be - me, sitting with my mother and sister who I love so much, and be accepted as another woman and mom in our family. Its love... and a welcome new beginning from a long road home.
I love you momma!

Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteNow with a quiet word in the ear of Quan Yin, we can hopefully set about defrosting the other one so dear to you.
What a wonderful day for you Chloe. Hugs to you

Almost like a Norman Rockwell painting! It's so good to see you so happy and content.. :) Happy Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy for you Chloe. I know how long you have been waiting for this to happen, it puts a smile on my face. I'm thrilled this happened, especially on Mother's Day! Hugs babe!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy for you Chloe. I think as much as the loss of a spouse the loss of mom, either in death or rejection , is nearly unbearable to us women. So far my mom has been my ally.
ReplyDeleteI'm Jealous..... Wish I was there!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo Happy for You....
ReplyDeleteTo paraphrase what Lana has said in times past, the beauty of the trip is in the journey, not in reaching the destination.

ReplyDeleteThat's wonderful Chloe. I am happy for you !!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful pic and I am so happy for you... and for your mother and sister because they get to have a wonderful daughter and sister such as you in their lives.
ReplyDeleteWe live for moments like these Chloe. They are so much more special for us cause we've had to wait for them and work so hard to get them.
ReplyDeleteWay to go Chloe my friend--- life is full of surprises, is it not?
ReplyDeleteVery Proud of you!
This made me cry...a good cry! Chloe, I knew from the first time I met you that you were an amazing woman. We've not spent a lot of time together, but never forget that you are just that...an amazing woman!
ReplyDeleteSo incredibly wonderful!
ReplyDeleteSome things are worth working and waiting for. It can make reaching the destination more meaningful. To many times we take these relationships for granted and then it is to late. Cherish and enjoy.
ReplyDeleteWOW! Thank you so much everyone for your very uplifting comments! *hugs*
ReplyDeleteThis picture represents the epitome of your true womanhood... sharing time with your mother and sister... How wonderful you must have felt!
ReplyDelete"Wonderful!!" is the only thing I can come up with....bless your mom and sister!
ReplyDeleteIt is a special feeling to have, it is like a ton brick are gone forever, it is the most happiest feeling ever.
ReplyDeleteChloe, I just saw the entire ABC interview, I laughed, I cried, and I am a straight man who also happens to be a Christian.
ReplyDeleteI don’t understand why you were born the way you were with the XXY chromosomes, it was beyond your control. Knowing what I now know about you and your wife, I have so much respect for you and her for staying together.
If the two of you decided to ever become intimate with each other I would not condemn nor would I see you as two promiscuous lesbians, because this is not the way it began, and its obvious that your commitment to each other is so strong and has so much meaning to both of you.
God Bless You
