I Learned Early To Like Who I See In The Mirror

Between 9 and 13 I had an obsession over my body. I watched with intense interest as my body changed, my girl body becoming a woman's body. The onset of menses cooled that off.

But now, obviously mature, I enjoy my body every day. To have breasts, womanly hips, to a hidden gem of a genital structure, to have given birth after making human beings. I like my eyes, my smooth skin, my slender hands, my small frame and feet. I wear my hair long, I'm careful with makeup, I dress in the feminine fashion, I pick feminine colors. I learned to cook and keep house before I left for college, I enjoy those skills and even the chore.

As a mother, caring for and raising children. As a wife walking by my husband. I could not ask for a better g*ft than that of being a woman.

Thank you,
