This morning I told Max that today the State Supreme Court was going to rule on the right for same sex couples to be legally married. He looked very concerned and asked,"Will you and Mama be allowed to live together if they say no?" It broke my heart that he thought our family could be torned apart that easily. I assured him that our family would be fine if they said no, and nothing would change.
But change things did... and for the better.
OH JOY!
TOTAL COMPLETE JOY!
I made an appointment today to marry my partner of 14 years.

Not a domestic partner license or a civil union license,
but a MARRIAGE LICENSE!

We are taking Max out for a nice dinner to celebrate that our family is going to be protected under the law.

I know! It's amazing!
I'm wondering if our licenses from City Hall back in '04 might be reinstated. Hmmm.
When I heard the news the other night, you and Michi and Max were the first people I thought of, with such a HUGE smile on my face. Then my smile turned into a bit of a mischievous smirk, and I thought about that guy from your neighborhood who ranted those awful slurs a few weeks ago... boy must he and his ideas of reality be challenged right now. The universe works in perfect ways. :)
