The Value Of A Family

 No comments

It's so funny, that I can see a cute pillow and go off on a tangent. These Family Pillows are available at Chiasso HERE

They are adorable, and I love the way each possible family configuration is included.

Family. The blended family. A family made by adopting. The traditional family made by giving birth. The family of just two people without children. The empty nest family. The single person family who has pets. The family formed by a circle of friends. The family at the workplace. or at school.

This morning on the local news it was announced that the state legislature is wrapping it up for the Summer recess, and that a number of bills are piling up to be pushed through at the last minute.

One of them involves preventing same sex couples from adopting. This deeply saddens and disturbs me, that the value of a family is not being understood and supported.

What do you think about what makes a family?
