There's a nice article in the NY Times about it all.
“Today, Connecticut sends a message of hope and promise to lesbian and gay people throughout the country who want to be treated as equal citizens by their government,” said Ben Klein, a lawyer with Gay and Lesbian Advocates and Defenders, a Boston group that litigated the Connecticut case. “It is living proof that marriage equality is moving forward in this country.”Interestingly on Monday night Zoe and I were in Border's and out of the blue she asked me, "Mom, can a girl marry a girl?"
I smiled to myself and said, "yes, a girl can marry a girl and boy can marry a boy." And I thought to myself -- now.

Amazing the things our children will grow up with as "normal" huh! Between the chicken pox vaccine, Obama and now this...I'm starting to feel like I've been alive for a VERY long time. BTW, if you haven't visited www.change.gov I think you would appreciate it.
Yet another thing to miss about CT. Sigh!
How sad am I that I don't have have a little girl so our daughters could get married? Hurray for CT! Let's hope the Empire State follows suit soon.
