Knock me over with a feather.

Scene: two middle-class, highly religious ladies in their 80s having a coffee. (My Mum and her sister.)

Aunt says a childhood friend of her children is moving back to the area with his wife and child. Aunt feels compelled to add that the child was born female but now identifies as a male.

My mother, barely pausing for breath, asks, "How old is he?"

🤠 Once mentioned to my parents that his youngest son was born into a female body, there was no reaction from them and I always wondered if they actually heard.

Turns out it wouldn't have mattered.

Had a fantastic walk up Arthur's Seat today with my mum who's here visiting. It was heaving with people, but it was still lovely and we had a nice picnic up there and a well-deserved cake and tea afterwards! She's very tough doing that at age 76, #prouddaughter! 💚

94 years old and my mum sets a great example of waste not want not by making her own butter from cream past its best. And the buttermilk gets frozen too for the next time she makes scones. Ninety Four. #ProudDaughter

🎨✍️ From across the oceans, my dad's pride in me has always shone bright. He's been my biggest cheerleader, boasting about my achievements every chance he gets.

This video is my tribute to him – the artist, the illustrator, and the sketching maestro

He nurtures his talent daily, creating beautiful works of art that inspire us all.

I'm beyond proud of him and his lifelong dedication to his craft.

Here's to you, Dad! 🌟❤️

Today was Veteran's Day in the United States. This picture is of me holding up my hand, marked with a V with 5 stars and a plus sign. We have veterans serving in all the wars and conflicts the US has fought in since the Revolutionary War and beyond.

Today I honor my father, grandfather, uncles, cousins, great grandfathers and everyone else I know who has believed in our country, agreeing with the politics at the time or not.
