Caitlyn Jenner

Yes, I am going to have a full blog post about Caitlyn Jenner. Caitlyn has been all over the news and is literally one of the two people my daughter has to look up to. My four year old will grab any and all of the magazines with Caitlyn on them and ask me to read them to her, we only allow her to read the good ones, she has listened to her speech from the ESPY Awards numerous times and almost cried when I told her the Caitlyn was woman of the year. Without a doubt Caitlyn Jenner is a hero in my eyes, but sadly others see her as just the opposite. Every single day I log onto Facebook and see a post saying that a man was given the title woman of the year. This is not only offensive, but wrong. Bruce Jenner is no longer a person, he no longer exists, and honestly he never really did! Caitlyn Jenner however is a legit woman, she has feelings, she's here to stay! When my daughter found out Caitlyn was the woman of the year she got the BIGGEST smile on her face and said "I could be woman of the year one day too!" this right here is why we need Caitlyn in our lives. She not only is giving the transgender community a face, but she is inspiring so many kids and probably adults who are in similar situations. The world doesn't need another athlete the world needs these kids to have someone to look up to, these kids face so many challenges I couldn't even imagine facing every single day this one person allows these kids to feel normal. Both awards that Caitlyn has received were not only well deserved, but well needed for this community. So thank you Caitlyn for teaching my daughter what I would never be able to, that being transgender isn't a bad thing and that you can still do so much-thank you!
