| This year's pride parade was really special for me, because I got to march with the PFLAG contingent (Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays). I made up a sign for my lesbian nieces, and put all of their names on it around the heart: Ashley, Stephanie, Katie, Melissa, Erin, Nikki, Bev, Kali, Jess, Kass, Lindsey. You wouldn't believe the reaction of the crowd to the PFLAG marchers...the yelling and clapping, people screaming "Thank you!" and "We love you!" almost brought me to tears. What an experience! |
