Marriage in California!

This morning, the California State Supreme Court gave the nod to gay marriage. Today, Lauren is almost three years old (she'll turn three on July 13th). Today, my partner asked me to marry him. Today we really do get to be a family.

I didn't think I'd be this emotional today. It's a surprise to me I that I welled up and started to cry when I read the announcement, and cried some more when my partner called to ask me to marry him.

We're not going to have a big wedding, and in fact it may not be more than 10 people, but it'll be our wedding and that's what counts. Lauren will always be able to say her family counted too.
