Blogging for LGBT Families Day – Participating Blogs

Blogging for LGBT Families DayIt’s here! Today is Blogging for LGBT Families Day, a day to raise awareness about LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) families.

Why June 1st? This date falls exactly between Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. As such, it honors mothers and fathers equally, but also conveys that not all families fit into the traditional structure of one mother and one father. June 1st is also the start of Gay Pride Month.

Thanks to all of you who are taking part. A special thanks to Jennifer Schumaker, who is nearing the end of a 500-mile walk to encourage dialogue among LGBT people and their families, friends and allies. She took time out of her tiring schedule to write a post for our event. Best of luck to Jennifer in the final two days of her journey.

    I wrote a blog entry yesterday about conversations with my daughter’s and gay cousin. Personally, we found it hilarious!

    Great idea…. from Silicon Valley Moms Blog!

    Count me in, too! Thank you very very much for this great idea, and whatever it spawns in the way of richer community and deeper understanding. And thank you for the June 2 amnesty for late-late night, west coast folks. I started to post before midnight but was delightfully sidetracked by grazing amongst the 113 (and counting) entries. (!)
