Obama Loves the Mamas and the Gay ones too

President Obama release a Mother's Day Proclamation this past week. The cute thing about it is how he recognized EVERY mama you can think of.

Whether adoptive, biological, or foster, mothers share an unbreakable bond with their children, and Americans of all ages and backgrounds owe them an immeasurable debt. Nurturing families come in many forms, and children may be raised by two parents, a single mother, two mothers, a step-mom, a grandmother, or a guardian. Mother's Day gives us an opportunity to celebrate these extraordinary caretakers, mentors, and providers who have made us who we are. As we honor today's mothers, we also reflect upon the memory of those who have passed, and we renew our commitment to living the values they cultivated in us.

Of course there will be some folks who will call this "crumbs", but again it's nice for him to notice every babies' mamas.

Gay Families are American Families

President Obama continues to reach out to us.

In the honor of Family Day 2009, Obama makes sure we are included the proclamation.

White House welcomes Gay Families to their Easter Egg Roll

This is exciting news. President Obama has invited gay families to the White House Easter Egg Roll.

This the administration's effort to be inclusive of other families and supportive in our goal for civil rights. The invite was also given to LGBT organizations like Family Equality Council, National Gay and Lesbian Task Force and the HRC.

This is very different than before, folks. A few years ago we went to the Easter Egg Roll to show the world that we actually exist. We had about 100 families present and every thing was cool. However, the Repubs claimed we were 'crashing' the event and possibly infecting their children with gayness.

This year, we are invited...so I wonder what they will say this time.
