Blogging for LGBT Families Day 2012

I know that a U.S.-based site like Mombian is bound to attract mostly U.S.-based visitors, so I’m especially pleased to see folks from non-U.S. countries who have found their way here—thanks for letting the rest of us travel a bit (albeit virtually) into your countries and lives.
