Well, what do you think? Are you happy now?

I guess I don't look too awful bad … do I? I mean, with all this makeup and stuff on, and the little crown and magic wand, I probably don't look too much like a boy. Maybe no one will know it's me.

Well, I sure hope they won't.

Mom really likes it when I dress up like this. Sometimes I do it around the house when she's not expecting it and it makes her smile. I like it when she smiles.

Hey! I know what you're thinking … and forget it! I only dress up for my mom … to make her happy. I don't actually like wearing this stuff, you know. What kind of sissy do you think I am, anyway?

Well, I got to go. The recital starts in a little bit and Mom wants to show me off to old Mrs. Sullivan from next door before we leave. I'll be so glad when all this is over. I can't wait to get back into my pants!
