Write to Marry Day

Write_to_marry_day_150x125I somehow missed this (actually it wasn't hard, I've been keeping up with almost no blogs lately including my own!), so I'm just adding this link now.

My best friend lives in California and recently she legally married her partner (and co-parent) of many years.

She married her in a non-legal ceremony the same year Chris and I married, and it wasn't until later that I felt crumby about the fact that we got married legally when she still couldn't. Of course, she was in a different country, but she couldn't have gotten married here either. She still can't.

I hope when her children and my children grow up that they will be able to marry whoever they like; that whether to include the state in their ceremonies will be about their own choices, not about the sex of the people they marry.
