“As a gay rights activist, I know just how important it is that our stories are told. And what a story this is--two loving men and their very, very lucky kids. As a parent of three, I know just how hard gay men and lesbians work to create our families and to ensure the safety and well being of our children. Jon and Michael's story represents so many of us who carefully, thoughtfully, and lovingly raise children.” —Joan M. Garry, Executive Director of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD)

“They didn't start out to change the world, they were just trying to change the life of one little boy. Jon and Michael thought they were making a family, as it turns out they were making history.

Whatever your views on gay rights this is a book that will cause you to question or redefine your notion of family.” —Leeza Gibbons, host and executive producer of Extra

“This book is a must-have for anyone contemplating parenthood or discovering a diverse family based on love.” —Kelly Taylor, editor in chief, Alternative Family Magazine
