Do you remember this day?

How am I supposed to remember this? I was like five, right?

I'm just curious. Do you remember this stage of our life at

all?

No, dude. I don't even remember anything from before

I was like nine.

I don't remember you being that muscular.

Right.

Like, your shoulders were like ...

I was like, "Whoa."

Like, look at these.

Whoa. Pause. Wait. That's not what I remember.

I remember you being way more lean.

About 280 right there.

Was I really?

So this is like a Body Spartan workout video from one winter here-

Was I really that?

... here in Texas. This might be like kind of what you

remember.

Yeah, it is.

So I was like 260 here. Wasn't quite 280, but I was still massive.

No difference they say.

No big deal. I'm the same. What's your overall like feeling?

I don't know. I don't ha- really have one.

Is it strange to see that?

Yeah. It kind of makes me sad.

Does it really?

Yeah, but it's fine.

I'm sorry, that was not the goal.

It's okay.

What, in like what way does it make you sad?

I don't know. I just like, I don't know. I just ... I'm fine. Don't ...

No, you're ... Stop, go away. Go away. Go away.

Does it make you sad because I'm your dad, but I'm not like that masculine figure

in your life?

Yeah.

Got it.

Some kids kind of make fun of me at school sometimes, but it's fine.

Over my transition?

Yeah.

It's 'cause one, they don't understand, which they don't need to understand at

that

age, and two-

True

... it's like they're looking for anything to

pick on another kid for.

Like, what's the positives now that you and I share?

I guess the positives are that we can kind of like bond over girly

stuff, and then

you're way better at styling clothes.

We were at Hoco dress shopping yesterday. That was a lot of fun.

Mm-hmm.

I got to help you pick out your dress.

Yeah.

So negatives, we're missing a masculine figure in the

house.

Positives, that we share a lot more things that

are like more feminine.

And we got Todd. We love Todd.
