In case you missed it, yesterday – September 28 – was Family Day. I have to be honest and tell you that I’ve never heard of Family Day. It must be fairly new because I haven’t even seen any Hallmark cards celebrating it. What I did notice is that President Obama signed in proclamation declaring Family Day and in doing so, redefined family.
Here’s part of the opening paragraph of the Proclamation
Whether children are raised by two parents, a single parent, grandparents, a same-sex couple, or a guardian, families encourage us to do our best and enable us to accomplish great things .
You can read the entire proclamation at the White House website.
