Iz's Position on Gay Marriage

My daughter's teacher asked her 2nd graders to write an I Have a Dream essay in honor of MLK Jr. My seven year old wrote that she wished gay marriage was legal. This may very well be my proudest moment as a parent.

Iz is on the right as the flower girl. She didn't finish the ring bearer, he is a floating head. The wedding rings are sitting on a pillow on the left.

	Elisabeth85 says: That is so cute and wise :-) We are lucky that gay marriages are legal here in the Netherlands. It's not for me, but Iz says it well : people of the same gender who love each other should be able to make that commitment legally :-D Posted 3 months ago. ( permalink )
