Prepare for your heart to be melted. A Colorado mother has shared the creative way her trans son came out to her and it’s the most adorable thing ever.

Cherie Garcia, of Centennial, recently a shared a tweet with a photograph of a ransom-style note her trans son handed to her in an envelope with the request that she didn’t read it until he had left the house.

“Congatulations!” the letter reads, “You are now the proud owner of your very own son. Please use he/him pronouns for me now.”

Garcia explains in the tweet that she got in touch with her son after reading the letter to ensure he knew she accepted him – and to poke fun at his unfortunate spelling mistake.

“After opening it, I called to let him know that the *only* thing that’s wrong with this is the ‘r’ he accidentally left out of congratulations.”

My teenager handed me this envelope and asked that I wait to open it until after he went to his dad’s house. After opening it, I called to let him know that the *only* thing that’s wrong with this is the “r” he accidentally left out of congratulations .
