Just talked to my Pop, his 70th birthday phone call. He told me he has been keeping my Coming Out Day photo that I posted on FB in his bag for work. He shows it to people whom he feels comfortable sharing my transition with! He seems to be proud of me!
One recent coworker, a lesbian, asked if I was his daughter...in law, and was I pregnant again?! I had my hands on my hips in the photo with my torso thrusting forward a bit to emphasize the "True Trans" part of the Against Me! shirt I was wearing.
I am just so touched, I always was a Poppa's girl and now I know my Poppa loves me and is proud that I am his child.
I am absurdly happy!
