ZTcRoP posted at this web site is actually pleasant.

Truly one of the all-time great CD stories, and one I keep coming back to, so full of heart, love, tenderness, and understanding.

I especially enjoyed the wedding gown scene, and tied to picture the boy trying to march with his little bare legs caressed by the voluminous soft gown.

Tell the truth now - would this story be half as interesting if it described a little girl being helped by a kindly neighbor lady to try on mens' business suits?

You brought me right into the story and I felt like I was there even to the end  so sad  thank---you was very good

WpqQ2b Thank you ever so for you post.Really thank you! Great.

KimHpv Major thankies for the post.Much thanks again. Will read on...

Excellent story. I had a little trouble with the last part where the thoughts about not going to bed together came up, but I realize this is something that would pass through a guys mind. There is a lot of realism in this story.

oAQMqu Thanks-a-mundo for the post.Really looking forward to read more.

Thank you for taking me to a time and place that I never had. Wonderful story.

    Dear Kelly,

  I just read your story, and it is wonderful! Thank you for sharing your sweet and beautiful memories.

i really enjoyed the story. it was endearing. thank you

Truth is sometimes better than fiction when  we recall the reality of our fantasies. Your story was wonderful. My experience was with my step mother  who when I  was 8 realized my desire to be a girl and helped me through it in a dear sweet and loving way.  The two of us would spend some wonderful weekends together until I was about 15 and she abruptly refused to participate but made sure that I had a pretty dress in my size and lingerie  in a section of her drawers until I finally left for college. She passed away when I was 22 but of course the memory of our mother daughter days are very real even now.  Thank you for sharing your experience in such a well written piece

There is a subtle difference between even the cleverest and most subtle fictional account and a narrative told simply and directly from memory. Despite the disclaimers of this site, I am persuaded that this is no fiction, but a recounting of the author's actual experience. One can see the influence of this experience in another of the author's stories, "The Reluctant Performer," which is clearly fictional. My goodness, what a memory to treasure and to hold close! I sure wish I was that Jeff, instead of this one...

Possibly the sweetest, tenderest story on this entire site.  Every boy should have grown up next door to a Mrs. Smith who could have introduced them in a non-damaging way to the delicious glories of girlhood, perhaps the greatest of which is - and let's admit it, now - bare thighs swathed in pettis and crinies and bare legs exposed to the elements, with no hint of pant material. A true paean to the days when, if a fine lady or girl referred to her "pants", she usually meant her lacy underdainties.  I can identify with angry, demanding, performance-oriented, whack-it-outta-ya parents, too, and the need for some kind of compassionate escape. Thank you.

SUCH A BEAUTIFUL STORY. WOULD LOVE TO READ MORE LIKE THIS

Good sweet story, warm too. I liked it. do another one like it.

I just loved this story. There are so many points that remind me of when I was growing up. I was actually putting myself into Susanna'a character as the story progreesed. I am a post-op TS and have been for 34 years comes this November. However, I have lived my life full time as a girl from the age of seven, which was back in 1955. I had a lot of accpetance and support not only from my family, but from most of the people in my hometown in the midwest. That is why I identified with most of the points in this story. The only thing is, I never balked at being dressed like a girl, doing girl things, or going outside dressed as a girl. I totally accepted who I was to become and did it gladly. You h ave written one heck of a story. Please keep up the good work.

Oh, I loved the story as it had so much to give to the reader. I liked having Lisa's mother help with the dressing and the loving care that she gave when transforming Susana.

The ending I would have liked changed as I would have enjoyed reading more of the adventures that I'm sure would have taken place but, I do understand it was appropriate for an ending and it was a good one.

Good story, well written kept my interest to the end.  Makes you want to read others of Kelly's.  Ending was great.

A warm beautiful story. A story that doesn't rely on fantasy, yet the same effect is achieved in such a believable manner.

  One of the sweetest stories I have ever read .... Thank you Kelly

                                  Hugs,
                                  Julie

This is something I would guess any one of us would love to have happen to them. A wonderful story, and, I believe, true!
  I do wish this had happened to me years ago, as I might be a lot different today!

Absolutely wonderful!  Sweet, sensitive and, in the end, so very poignant.  Without doubt, the most touching TG story I've ever read.  A work of art.  Bravo!

I believe it happened just as you wrote it. What a wonderful story. I would never want anyone to tell me it was not true and destroy the wonder of it all.  Thanks.

Tender and sweet stories like this makes my heart feel so good on a bad day.

A very tender story with a powerful ending--it made me misty-eyed!
