		<description>I have a work family. I have my family I grew up with, you know...the ones who are actually related to me.  I have my friend family.

Family is as much about what is in your heart as it is who you are actually (blood) related to. You absolutely have a family. And it sounds like a fabulous one at that.

I&#039;m sorry people can make such dumb comments.</description>

		<description>Okay some of those comments, that you&#039;ve gotten, are just... Gah! I&#039;m sorry people are so thoughtless. 

Also - family is not defined by if you do or do not have kids. It&#039;s just not. And family isn&#039;t defined by people you are related to by blood. I think about this a lot given the fact that I still can&#039;t get married (at least not in my own state) and we can&#039;t adopt (in most states) and if she has kids will they be mine too? No. Not in the eyes of the law... people&#039;s definition of &#039;family&#039; is so small.</description>

		<description>Aw, Louise. I am sorry people can be such unthinking, unknowing idiots. Thank you for teaching me to be more kind and thoughtful in these situations.

p.s. I have not forgotten your Cherry Coke. Now that I&#039;m actually home for more than a day and all my company is gone, I&#039;ll be sending it soon. :-)</description>
