Yesterday my mom (pictured on the right) turned 75. I recently texted the photo of me on the left to her and she just loved my hair styled this way. I told her it was heavily teased on the top/back. She replied, "I guess that's why I love it - haha!" She has always loved big hair and still styles hers with a late 60's flair with modern twists. I tend to take after her in really loving those big hair styles. My mom is the primary source of the kind heart that I grew up with. While some in my family were very slow to accept my transition and still struggle with respecting pronouns etc.. my Mom and now mostly by her example, my Dad.. have both finally gotten it. It took 7 years of knowing this and of experiencing my transition for them to both consistently treat me as their daughter after having to grieve the feeling of loss of their first born son. They never stopped showing love and support but their struggle to think of me differently and fully accept my transition was very real and hard for them. I share all of this just to express that although it was at times brutal for me to visit them and be occasionally or regularly misgendered, and to be excluded from certain things because of other family members.. I deeply love my parents and they both have fully "come around." I still miss certain family events but I feel at peace with my parents and I sense they feel the same with me when we are together. The tension that was always there during visits as my transition commenced finally feels like a thing of the past. I hope this brings hope to those like me that are not yet in this situation. To parents of trans people.. it is okay to grieve and take time to "get it right" as long as you truly are trying and showing love consistently along the way. Just know that a healthy and incredibly happy offspring anxiously awaits the completion of that process and it can never come soon enough 😊 #decadeofari #bighair #fuschiagirl #hazeleyes #lgbt #transgender #trans https://www.instagram.com/p/CoiZYMTuFDn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Weekend stolen. That's all I can say about my last two days. When I refer to my job being busy people who don't know me might assume things got busy working a normal job.. but I have a career in IT and I am salaried. When it is month end and the accounting folks need some things looked at or emergency code changes so month end processing can happen successfully and be verified.. I am often called. I'm posting pictures of my recent red dress 💃🏼 shoot.. because this weekend I wore a red cape, sacrificing my free time once again so that 25 people were not on conference calls trying to sort out stuff that could already be sorted. Happy Monday to you all. I need a vacation. #notallheroeswearcapes #womenintech #girlswhocode #maidenariana #hazeleyes #naturalcurls #bighair #fuschiagirl #lgbt #linkinbio https://www.instagram.com/p/CdEGnvEuA97/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
