A new documentary on Gay and Lesbian Families - www.conceivingfamily.com

My husband and I were lucky enough to be a part of a very exciting documentary, debuting on June 24 - Conceiving Family.

Conceiving Family takes us inside the lives of five gay and lesbian couples who show the bravery, determination, and humor it takes to rise above the legal systems, societal prejudices, and personal fears inherent in starting a family through adoption.

Conceiving Family director/producer Amy Bohigian and her partner Jane Byers are an American/Canadian couple that adopt biracial 15 month-old twins. She's crafted a beautiful film, in the hopes of inspiring new and waiting families.

Visit the film's website at www.conceivingfamily.com to learn more about the film and to view the trailer. You can also see another preview of the film and our family here - http://vimeo.com/23553445

It's a bit strange putting such a private moment on film, but we see the film as a real gift for our son. And we hope it inspires other couples who are thinking about starting a family, or who are waiting to be matched.
