Modern Family

There are common threads that make up the patterns of our lives and it has been so rewarding to meet other gay families in New York. Sometimes it is just great to feel one of the crowd; part of the herd. With the lunacy out there, such as the Don't Say Gay bill, some days it's going to feel like an uphill struggle, with more steps backwards than forwards.

During times of fire and of chill, in times of clamour and silence we find a way, together.

But the best parts are those little moments that so often slip through the fingers. Tonight was an ordinary night and nothing special. But what really could be better than sitting on the sofa, watching America's Funniest Videos? Sometimes, it's just as simple as that.
