5 minutes ago my dad called me by my name, Aiden. it was a little awkward at first, he wasnt too sure if he was pronouncing it right haha
but its a really big step for my dad and i'm happy. I asked him to put Aiden on my x-mas gifts, and he said he will
this is going to be my first christmas out to my family and i'm really excited
that is all

Me too. I'm interested to see the gifts I'll get. Though honestly many of my gifts were unisex or male focused anyway- at least the ones from my lists (yes, my family still does lists). This year hopefully I won't get something girly I'll have to exchange.

I'm glad things are going well for you and your father. Hopefully 2011 will show much success in transition for you.

my family does lists too! i told my dad how very important it is that I get clothes that help me pass and feel comfortable, so he's been looking for jeans with a short inseam [i'm small!] and shirts, boxers...but because these are my x-mas gifts I have to wait till then to open them -_-
i cant wait for 2011! new years is probably my favorite holiday.
