This event starts prior to Christmas 2015, since then I have had different family and friends staying at my house . My Mother & 2 sister’s are presently here, but that’s for another day . I haven’t made any attempts to get all dolled up for quite some time now .
Saturday , after a long day , I called a very good friend of mine , and asked her if she was able to go out dancing! She’s my favorite dance partner . Thankfully she was willing and able to go out with me , even with short notice ! .
Shower , shave, oh the agony of not shaving for a few months . Picked out a blue floral bra, with matching boy shorts, white camisole , black tights, an Irish sweater , and a charcoal gray knee length pencil skirt. Finished off with a pair of black over the calf, flat boots. Of course a ton of foundation , a smidgen of mascara , a touch of eyeliner , and a bit of lipstick I admired myself for a few moments , grabbed my London Fog overcoat , my purse and out the door I went.
I picked up my friend around 11Pm, and we arrived at the club by midnight , I received a blue “Hero” wristband , meaning that I am a designated driver . The place was thumping , great live band lots of lovely people mingling around. We shook our money makers until well after 2Am, just having a fun night with a few great friends !
Well the club closes, we grab a coffee at the local WaWa, and head home .
I arrive home around 3ish tired, but feeling like I was on cloud 9, was just an absolutely great night to get away for a while.
Well, I walk into my house , and my visiting mother is up, and preparing tea in the kitchen . Her internal clock is still on European time, so it’s 8 o’clock for her. In case you are wondering , yes my mum knows all about JessicaLynn , has never seen her fully dressed up until this moment though. Mum looking in my direction , asks me to sit for tea, (Very thick Irish brogue ) Even at 49 years old, in my own house mind you, I wasn’t sure if I was getting in trouble, was a tad nervous . Knees shaking , heart racing, cold swears, I was quite anxious . You know , it’s one thing to tell your parents that you’re a CD, it’s another experience entirety to walk in on your mum, fully dolled up.
Her reaction was not what I was expecting at all. She complimented my outfit , told me that I was beautiful , and was very excited to finally meet Jessica all dolled up. She was waiting for this event , ever since the bight I told them so many years ago.
A quick cup of tea or 3, I was off to the shower , and she would make breakfast , but the sense of joy I was now carrying . I was so elated , beyond ecstatic to receive her approval for who I am.

Cookie that is a wonderful and heart-warming story. I am so happy that your mum saw who you really are, not just by way of attire but as an indication of the whole person you are. More importantly, it's lovely that she embraced everything so naturally.
That's not to suggest that she hasn't had some questioning periods since that night "so many years ago" but in the end, as many others also realise, she didn't lose a son but she did gain a daughter - sort of a 'two-in-one' deal.
I'm sure now that your hibernation (so close to 'Hibernia', right?) has come to a close and JessicaLyn is enjoying the sunshine.
Hugs.
Doc,
Thank you so much for your kind words. Mom, although i failed to put it down, and i had a very long conversation, i never had to answer so many quesrions in my life.... she yas a much better understanding of what a CD is compared to a TG.... made a huge stide forward in our relationship.
Realised, that I am truly blessed.

OMF JEssica! I am SO happy for you My mom knew I was CD but not TG and even with the dressing she did NOT wan to see it though she did NOT condemn me. I understand it cause she was in her late 70's and from another generation But it still hurt that she was not wiling to see Cynthia. So I am SOO happy for you that your mom is accepting of you even after seeing you!! You are truly blessed!
Luv,
Cyn
Very beautiful, brought tears to my eyes because I wish I had your courage. It's so wonderful to hear about truly loving, accepting families; and it does encourage me to think about telling at least one person in my family about my dressing. Unfortunately, all the worst case scenarios start creeping in and overwhelm me.

Ally,
Thank so much for your kind words. I have faced some horrors with the parental units in the past. I came out to them as a defense, wasn't going to tell them, but felt I had no option. The response was horrific. I've read that time heals all wounds, and in my case it has. There's a forum post, Coming out to my parents, that I posted that explains more.
You'll know in your heart, when its time.....
Hugs!!
Cookie 🙂
Ally,
This is the story of me outing myself to the parents, I hope it can relieve some of your fears.

I believe my mother suspected I was wearing her girdles and would leave her old girdles and pantyhose in a couple of convenient locations throughout the house.
JessicaLynn; Thank you for sharing the fun story. You're fortunate to have a mother that understands and accepts you.
