Powerful and painful thoughts, Charlotte. I'm grateful for you, today, tomorrow, and beyond. P.S. My mother catered and cooked quite a few fancy things but always insisted on canned cranberry sauce

Do you know of any reputable organizations that help transgender folks (children to adults) in whatever ways they need help? I can donate a bit but have no idea where to start.

A beautiful homage to something truly American. And a sobering reminder that while we celebrate and partake, we must also pause, reflect and take action. You, Charlotte, are truly the best gift of the season.
